My fella and have been under the weather and decided to nip our sickness in the bud by trying out the newly opened Urgent Care in our neighborhood.
We walked in and were surprised by how nice the place is. It looks more like a spa or salon than a place for medical care. It was pretty empty, probably because it just opened and not too many people know about it yet. That has always been my main concern about going to a quick care place, having to wait a long time for care, but we were the only people there. The ladies at the counter were so friendly and nice. They assured us that they'd make us feel better in no time. There was some customary paperwork to fill out and once that was complete we were taken immediately back to see the doctor.
Dr. Hanks was extremely friendly and personable. He made us feel at ease and even offered to see both my fella and myself in the same room, which I thought was nice. He treated us, but also made small talk and got to know us. I know that's probably not typical, but since they weren't super busy it was nice that they took that extra time with us.
I'm usually pretty reluctant to go to the doctor too often, but everyone at this facility made the whole process so painless and they really seemed to care. I hope they keep up this level of service as they become busier.
