Slow! 4 people sitting at the window, you pick a number to be seen and no one is saying anything! They pick 1 number every 30 minutes. Seriously. With 4 people at the window!

This place is so slow with multiple people as the window and only calling one person at a time. Only 7 people in the waiting room and I've been waiting an hour. Yall need a new process. You should have to waiting to go to the window to tell them what we need for them to send you somewhere else In the building....

Every time I come to the WIC office it’s about a2 hour wait. And the waiting room isn’t even full/busy.

The staff was so helpful and professional. The NP was very considerate and seemed genuinely concerned about my health. She really put my mind and heart at rest about a particular issue.

Do they do pap smears? Or could I go in and get checked out for a yeast infection or bacterial vaginosis? I have no insurance. I really don't want to rack up a big bill at the hospital.

They do pap smears and STD testing! It's not costly and if you can't pay upfront they have payment plans available. Appointments are made a week in advance so call early to make sure you get a spot.
