Quest Diagnostics Incorporated

Find another location! The 2 ladies here seem to hate their jobs, one worse than the other, she is very nasty with everyone coming in. Watched her dig in her ear with a pen then put it back in the cup for patients to use. Gross! Had to do a 3 hr test, no tv, no magazines, uncomfortable chairs, and signs that say no cell phones. So what am i suppose to do for 3 hrs to keep myself sane? Doesnt help when the nurses are very uninviting. other locations offer a room to lay down in to pass the time of waiting, this place doesnt even keep track of your time of when you need blood drawn they tell you to let them know! Really? Last time here!

So my appointment was at 7:15 AM. I arrived at 6:59 to find 2 people already standing in the hall. At 7:09 someone finally showed up singing down the hall. No apology or nothing. If I can arrive on time, please have the courtesy to do the same especially when I make appointment for a reason.

I HATE getting needles. First of all, no one can find my veins and secondly; I’m not a pincushion! Even at hospitals, they treat me like a voodoo doll.
At the Quest Diagnostics in Laurel, MD, everyone leaves that office with a smile on their face. Unheard of! I mean, didn’t they just get a shot and doesn’t a shot hurt?
The phlebotomists here know their stuff. They get me on the first try, always. I never bruise. They never stick me in my hand and they use butterfly needles. They laugh, sing and are always pleasant and know their stuff, most importantly. Jamokie (sp?) is one of my favorites, but today; Vonnie took my blood and in a split second it was over and I left smiling too.
Listen, we all need to get blood taken and if you’re gonna do it — might as well go to the best place there is — Quest in Laurel, MD, opposite from the Laurel Hospital.
The only thing they don’t do, is give out batman Band-​Aids for the boys and the Little Mermaid, for the gals.
