Kathy at the front door was so kind and helpful. She was refreshingly patient with everyone!
Dr. Lynn was awesome. He asked a lot of good questions, was thorough in his assessment and really seemed to care. Everyone else I encountered were great as well. This was a really good experience!

I am extremely happy with the personal attention given me over the last year, with very informed staff members guiding me on my decisions about matters regarding care of my heart, my arteries, my diet, and other various systems! They are very caring, thorough, and quite willing to spend quality time with me in helping me make detailed decisions regarding medications and other needed areas regarding my quality of life! I'm very, very happy to recommend this caring group of facilities!!!

I didn't have to wait long Luke you do at most doctors office appointments. Even my blood work didn't take long. The guy in the lab was amazing. I didn't feel a thing when he drew my blood. Very happy with Shasta County. Community Health.
