Saarla was very kind and thorough.She took good care of me.My only issue was that I had a strep test and I'd received results on my app but I didn't see anyone for maybe 45 mins. I began to think I'd been forgotten. However, I popped my head out of my room and she was getting ready to come to see me. She was very busy as I realize they always are at these urgent care clinics. My only request is a nurse, someone might pop their head in and let you know you haven't been forgotten. Your test was negative and the health care worker will be in as soon as they can.My care from the front desk to all who worked with me were very nice. I will definitely go back there. Every single person was great!It was very clean.Saarla was very caring and thorough.Thank you
