“Best urgent care I’ve ever been too. I hurt my arm/shoulder and was able to be seen right away. I was able to easily schedule online, fill out my paperwork and was ready to go. The whole staff is really awesome and so kind. Highly recommend. I won’t go anywhere else now. Also the office is brand new and beautiful in DC Ranch, plus with X-ray machine!”
