My son had an appointment at the Calvert County Health Department. I was surprised and upset to see that there were no COVID 19 procedures being implemented (aside from some people wearing masks). THIS IS THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT?! Of all the places we ve visited, if we get sick, it will be from here. There was no hand sanitizer available in the waiting room for patients (even after filling out paperwork!), no covid-19 health screening questions at intake, no signs about social distancing, mask wearing, or hand washing. People in the waiting room were not 6 ft apart, and some staff members weren t wearing masks in the narrow hallway where they take you back to see a practitioner. One practitioner did not keep his mask over his nose when interacting with us. The place was no different than it would have been prior to Covid-19, with the exception of some staff wearing masks. This is extremely concerning, and I wonder why it was allowed. Many low income people, and/or at risk people, come into Calvert County behavioral health department. Why aren t people being protected?

It s a stark contrast to the other facilities I ve visited, where safety, caution, and education has been a top priority.

Everyone we have come in contact with here has been kind and courteous. I never feel like I'm being judged and I always get the help I need and questions I have answered. BH is amazing. The secretaries are awesome and the team of MH professionals seem to genuinely care about their clients. I've been there, the WIC office, reproductive health, and the health Dept where they deal with medical assistance etc. And every doctor, secretary, etc. that I've seen has been amazing. We are so lucky to have such a great team of people here serving our county.

Absolutely ridiculous every time I call there I'm always on an excessive hold. My next part of the issue is every time we go see our son's counselor we are always on a video chat and not with a live person which is very impersonal. While I can understand the reason for video chat I work nights so my days are wide open oh, there should be absolutely no reason that someone cannot be there face-to-face with us.

I had a pleasant experience. The Male doctor made me feel extremely comfortable during my female exam. He asked me questions about my medical history. He was very attentive, made sure I understood everything. Told me to ask questions about anything. He was very relatable considering I was in stirrups The Nurse was a older women, she was great! She was laid back, made me feel like I was hanging with one of my aunts. Felt extremely comfortable my first time. All in all I had a great first experience. Would highly recommend.

this place just makes up appointment off the top of their heads. how can you tell someone they have a appointment one day and when they get there they dont have a appointment and they make them come back the next day. this place is a damn joke. The NP there doesn't give the time of day for the people that come to see her. She sees a person for 5 mins and doesnt even bother looking more into that person
