My husband and I had difficulty getting a test for the Corona virus. we finally got in touch with Victory Medical Center, and so glad we found you. We were treated so well and everything was explained in detail. We waited in the car like several other people, but the test was preformed more quickly than I expected. Thank you so much now I feel relieved that I tested negative . Great job Ladies.
