Staff need to be friendlier at this location. No empathy was shown or anything. Everyone seemed as if they didn't want to be at work.

The exam room needs to be clean or, yeah, it needs to be clean and ready for the next patient. There were things on the floor from, I guess, the last patient. That should have been picked up.

This is one of the fastest moving urgent cares I have used in the Wellstar system. I was in and out in an hour time and they confirmed I had an UTI and prescribed meds for it, expensive meds, but as long as they work it was worth the money.

It was okay. Not great and not horrible. Once my mother was out in a room, the nursing staff was not responsive, even after notifying them of my mother's need to go to the restroom. She's 90 so waiting to go is a challenge.

Every single staff member was professional, kind, easy to understand and very clearly explained the diagnosis and took extra time to settle any concerns I had. Extremely pleased and I'll definitely be back (tho of course we all hope we don't have to).

The staff was unbelievable and did everything in a timely manner to take care of my husband's cut on his arm from a fall. Provided me with information on how to take care of the wound until I return for the stitches to be removed. I'm more than pleased with the service we received.

Wellstar Urgent Care suffers from being part of a large organization. In a small town, an urgent care facility would clean and dress a minor wound. This facility, however, gave me instructions on how I could clean and dress the wound and referred me to a wound center where the earliest appointment is three weeks away. I don't understand why a wound cannot be dressed by urgent care facility. The test results and prescriptions were useful, the staff was professional, friendly and accommodating.
