Labcorp

Had an appointment for 2pm on a Wednesday. When I got there the tiny, windowless waiting room was packed wall to wall. There was even a guy sitting on the floor in the hallway which should have been my first red flag. Nightmare DMV vibes, totally quiet save a TV blasting news about the Zika virus, candy wrappers on the floor. Add that to the hot temperature and gross hallway they share with a toy store (complete with fake monkeys in cages– sounds fun, i know, i almost stayed just for the story) and you get a pretty unsanitary vibe for a medical lab. They immediately told me they were running behind and couldn’t see me at 2pm. I hung out for a while but the idea of sitting in that hot room filled with sick and sleeping people only to be met with a tired /​busy /​overworked tech was a no go. I’d pick another spot if you can.

This place has its ups and downs, but what made me change my mind on this place, toward the positive, was my experience today.
I had to go in for a 3 hour glucose tolerance test, which is a pretty intense testing experience. An hour in, I thought I was going to throw up and pass out. Noticing my clear discomfort, the wonderful ladies who were working had me in a comfy recliner in no time, letting me nap until it was time to take my blood again. They checked in on me, even though they were busy.
It isn’t a perfect place but I really cannot say enough nice things about their staff.

great lab, there is usually a wait if you go on a saturday but the staff was nice, helpful and good at drawing blood. I’ve been there many times for bloodwork and it is always painless and bruiseless (which is usually not the case for me).

Came in for a 9:30a appointment, arrived early at 9:15a.
Straight to the receptionist window and was greeted by Janelle H.
Filled out a form and already in the back room getting the test done.
Janelle is wonderful, super quick, and amicable. For example, she let me know to gather my things while she’s prepping some forms to sign so I can leave quicker.
In the end, signed a few things and out the door with a confirmation sheet.
Janelle is extremely efficient and friendly, helping me get in and out in under 15 mins. (much better experience than the Jay St. Labcorp branch)
**Note**: this office is hidden on the 2^nd floor of the building. Head inside and straight up the steps (or take the lift) up to 2^nd floor. You’ll see a toy store entrance, go the left of that to turn a corner on your right and there’s the office entrance.

The receptionist was INCREDIBLY rude (She’s the short chubby girl with long brown hair). I had some valid questions since it was my first time at this location and every response was filled with attitude. I know this place is depressing but WTF. Of course she also ended up being the one taking my blood. As I was leaving, I had one more question and had politely asked the receptionist — she pretended I wasn’t even there. I had to ask again louder and again no response. It wasn’t until another person saw me and answer my question did she look up from doing NOTHING. It was a horrible experience and I’m sure to complain to the official LabCorp people.

I arrived, paperwork in hand, hoping to get in and out quickly. There were two people in the waiting room; so far, so good. No receptionist at the desk so I waited. And waited. And waited.
Fifteen minutes later, a man appeared and very rudely asked if I had an appointment and then chided me for not signing in. The thing is, there was no sign in sheet. So after another 5 minutes of him grubeling through papers to find one, I signed in and waited.
Mercifully, a young woman appeared and quickly took my ID and paperwork. It was then not long until the deed was done.
I’m not the most demanding of customers. I know that we all have bad days and lab work can get tedious. On top of that, no one loves having to drudge in for pre-​employment drug screens. In the end, this place is simply understaffed and overworked. It serves it’s purpose however and I will be back if I need lab work again.

So incredibly rude. I came in for a pre-​employment drug test, and while I was in and out fairly quickly, the place was dingy and depressing, and the employees couldn’t talk to me like I was a person. It was like nobody there could speak above a murmur or at all, I was led by hand motions and half sentences that I could barely hear. Nobody wants to be there, especially the employees. Try to go to another location if you want to be treated like a human being.

The 2 stars go to the nurse who drew my blood. She was gentle and kind, though she seemed kind of depressed and sad. Which makes sense, because the place is horribly depressing, bad lighting, one of the rudest receptionists I’ve seen in a long time. Basically nothing about this place is welcoming. Avoid if you can.

I am especially fond of this LabCorp. The system is not perfect but they do the best they can and the blood specialists are always so gentle and professional.

Do not ever step foot in this place.
I don’t know where to start. But it’s disorganized, dirty and when they tried to take my 6 year olds blood, instead of trying to calm her, they just called in another technician to «hold her down.» Terrible place. I walked out.

Dont go to this place for any work done, unless you want to wait on line and deal with people who are rude.

I went here to have blood work done for my one year old daughter. The women, Vicky, did such a great job. She was very gentle and considerate. I highly recommend them for pediatric labs.

I had to visit this site a number of times over the last month. First, the center closes at 3:30 which is inconvenient, although it does open at 7:00 if you can go before work. Second, twice my samples were left in a room with no identification whatsoever, which is more likely when an order is faxed over and they take the form out of the identification bag. This could lead to mixups. More seriously, they wouldn’t allow me to use their restroom to provide the sample which meant that I could not provide it without coming back after I started medication, and probably explains why none of the tests had a positive finding, which impacted my course of treatment. (When people are ill, it doesn’t help to make them take two trips for every test.) I did find Pearl to be helpful and she was good at finding a vein for the blood test, They have also improved waiting times.

Wow, this place does NOT inspire confidence! Located above a pharmacy and next to a toy shop, you are guided to the office by an «Ironman» poster. Tucked away and tiny, the waiting room is ugly and depressing. I only went there because UnitedHealthCare lists them as their preferred lab. Big surprise. The pros are that the wait was very short and the nurse was very sweet – no hassles. Hours are 7 – 3:30. And they close at 3:30 SHARP so get there before your scheduled appointment.
