I visited Doctors Urgent Care for a sinus issue. The place is amazing, it is clean and professional, the front desk was personal and polite. The nurse was great, and the nurse practitioner was by far one of the best I had ever been to. Very personal and professional, love this place.
Another successful trip to this urgent care! I can not express how thankful my family is for their office and staff. My daughter had an ear infection a few months back, and now my son has an allergic reaction to multiple wasp stings. In and out, but done with such care and helping hands.
