The wait time was less than 10 minutes. Appointments are set up in time slots right now; however, I was able to set up an early Saturday morning appointment the same day within 45 minutes from calling the clinic. The staff was pleasant and helpful. The Doctor's name is C. Moorland's, and her bedside manners were excellent. The Medical Assistant has outstanding bedside manners too. Both listened to all of my questions and concerns. They were compassionate and I felt comfortable explaining my symptoms without feeling anxious and/or rushed. The environment is clean and organized. I actually live near Downtown, Columbus and this visit was my second experience. My initial visit was outstanding so I went back for an exam and treatment. l will continue to drive to Reynoldsburg Ohio Health Urgent Care to receive medical treatments that are not considered an emergency. Furthermore, I like their extended office hours. I give this clinic and Staff 5 stars. They accepted my insurance plan. I highly recommend this clinic.

About Tetanus Shots

A tetanus shot is used to prevent tetanus, also known as lockjaw. Tetanus is a bacterial infection that can lead to painful muscle spasms, and oftentimes, death. Adults in the US have to be vaccinated against tetanus because there's currently no cure for it and roughly 10 to 20 percent of victims die from tetanus. Symptoms of tetanus come from a toxin produced by tetanus bacteria and usually begin appearing about a week after the infection occurs. The most common symptom is muscle stiffness that begins in the jaw and spreads to the neck, arms, legs, or abdomen, but other symptoms include trouble swallowing, headache, fever and sweating, irritability and restlessness, high blood pressure, palpitations, and muscle spasms in the face.

It's important to get treated for tetanus as soon as you know you're infected because if it's not treated quickly enough, you can die from suffocation. Tetanus shots are given in the shoulder muscle. If you've never had a tetanus shot before, you might be given a three-dose primary series. You'll get the first dose as a three-in-one combination called Tdap that prevents tetanus, pertussis (whooping cough), and diphtheria (Td). The other two doses will usually be a dual vaccine and you'll receive them over a 7 to 12 month period. You should receive a tetanus vaccine between 2 months and 6 years old, as well as a teenager and an adult. Pregnant women might need a tetanus shot during the third trimester of pregnancy.
