Our County Health Department is where we went. They only have after 4:00 hours one night a week so I figured they'd be packed. It's also first come first served and once they reach the number they know they can take in a night they cut it off. So even though they are open until 7:30 that night if they get the max they can do by that time they could cut it off at 5:30 or 6:00.
Knowing that I called ahead because we wouldn't get there until 5:45. The lady was super on the phone and said if I gave her our names she would pull a number for us and put us in the 5:45 slot.
We got lost on the way and didn't get there until 6:00 but she had our number and by 6:30 we were back in a room starting our exams. There really wasn't a big crowd and though we were the last to leave (after getting our results) around 8:00 it went fairly quickly. A lot of the people we saw ranged from business dress like us to maybe just some poor people with no insurance. Didn't see any crack heads or skanky prostitutes.
All in all it was a pretty decent experience and will be a regular part of our swinging rules/checks/plans, etc
