The only thing I did not like was how long I had to wait in the exam room to get the first set of rabies post exposure shots. I arrived in the ER at just after 12 and it was 230 before I got the shots. I live 45 miles away in Lavonia so I needed to get back home and go to work it seemed that the ER was very short staffed with just one nurse. It was 4 o,Äôclock before I got home. And since there weren,Äôt that many people in the ER on Friday to begin with I don,Äôt know why it took so long to get the first set of shots.
