I was put on a waitlist for my 2nd vaccine appointment in July/August. They just emailed me that a vaccine is available after half a year. What a joke LOL

The lady I talked to on the phone was the most cheerful person ever! The guy who gave us the vaccine was gentle and friendly as well! The staff was simply amazing

A customer entered the St. Thomas location, and she was not wearing a covid mask. The one of the associates (Puneet) came from behind the counter with a mask for the customer. Within 15 seconds he used tact and a pleasant discussion to ensure covid protocols were being followed. Thank you Puneet for acting immediately and treating the customer with dignity and respect.

Terrible customer service. Was in there for almost 10 minutes looking at knee braces and no one came over to offer help. The staff instead stood at the back counter and laughed and joked with each other. I've already called and complained. I will never offer them my business again
