"I expected them to run a test... Instead they handed me a sheet of paper saying that I should go buy some ibuprofen... Definitely made me feel like I was incompetent."
— The Lumberjack student newspaper"The urgent care in Humboldt is a nightmare. If you’re lucky to get there before they’ve reached capacity for the day — in which case you’d have to come back the next day — then you’d be waiting three to four hours to be seen."
