ORIGINAL: Lynnxz I love the Urgent Care place near my house. I've babbled on about this place before, but really. Freaking awesome. C needed some minor surgery on his foot.... and they did it ALL for 75 bucks. Like... office visit, surgery, 30 vicodins and a full course of antibiotics... 75 dollars. And yes... it's without insurance. Earlier last month, I took my best friend there to get a nail pulled out of his leg. Visit, antibiotics, and tetnus shot for 45. I fricking love these people. I'm volunteering there next quarter, because one, I'm not in school till the spring, and two, it'll look great on the application, and three, they are bad ass. That truly is awesome, Lynn. I wish that there were more places like it!! I spent one night in a hospital & the bill was over $6,000. And no surgery was involved. Medical costs are so bad now that there is a huge population who are walking around getting worse because they can't afford the basics. So good on you & good on the people running this clinic!! I love it when I hear stuff like this!
