Woke up with a runny nose and sore throat. A rapid Covid test was positive. I got an appointment immediately, got seen within 1/2 hour and prescribed the medication I needed.

Dr. Kamash and the team deliver top-notch care. This urgent care visit was truly exceptional. Online scheduling and registration were a breeze, and I was promptly attended to upon arrival. Minimal wait for the provider, who efficiently ordered necessary tests. Dr. Kamash offers valuable health advice—I highly recommend their services.

It was a great visit. I needed an xray. Bushra and Randi took care of me very well. Quick but very well. The nice lady at reception was very nice and welcoming but I didn't get her name. Thank you again for your help.

Love how I can make an appointment in the app.   I picked the first opening which was 9 AM.  I was confused when 2 people were ahead of me when clinic opened at 9 and I was there at 8:50, but I really didn’t have to wait.  I always  get excellent care at this location and I’ve been seen by various NPs.

It was really easy to schedule and go in especially filling the paper forms online. Staff was very helpful and kind place was super clean. I just feel bad they were under staffed and had to wait a little bit.

This was my first visit there and I scheduled an appointment online and completed all the paperwork online. I arrived 10 minutes early and signed some documents and waited for an hour before I was called. The staff was nice and apologized for my wait and the doctor I saw was very nice but I doubt I’ll go back there

A great experience for something I had a lot of anxiety about. Had no wait time or issues at the testing center/lab. Had blood drawn at 3pm and had results by email at 9am the next morning.

After receiving my results, I called Labcorp and discussed the results with a consultation. This consultation filled in my knowledge gaps and made me more aware of my particular situation.

The wait time was unreal, they obviously need more help thru out, short staffed. My nurse Julie was very compassionate and professional. She listened close and Documented info i wanted conveyed to Dr. The physician Dr Dawson was very thorough and explained the process, to get taken care of. The team work was great. My XRay by Amy was quick and she was clear and concise in how to have me position.

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.
