Quest Diagnostics

Came in on a Saturday without an appointment. The phlebotomist was very friendly and awesome and made time to draw my blood even though she didn’t have to. This is by far the best Quest location I’ve been to. I recommend it. The location is also very convenient, in a strip mall next to Winn Dixie and Big Lots.

I usually leave here feeling ripped off and in a bad mood. The lady that took my blood today was friendly and informative. She was very professional. I have to admit I was surprised. Please Quest, expand your hours and beef up your Saturday staff. Make this convenient!.

Last Thursday I went to have some blood work done. Paperwork was done, I had 2 referrals from two different doctors in two totally diferent practices. The gentleman who took care of me pinched me once on each arm and said he couldn’t find my veins. This gentleman had no gloves and had some kind of fungus in his fingers and fingernails. He passed me on to another lady who then pricked me twice, once on each hand. They were able to get enough for one of the tests. I asked for my prescription for the other test they couldn’t provide and she asked me to come back on the next Monday. Today is monday, I went there again same man with fungus in his nails and fingers told me the same and did not try but refer me to the other lady gain who pick me twice again unsuccessfully.. And when I asked for my prescription for the test they had sent it with the other lab. Place was disorganized and the man with the fungus on his nails and finger should wear gloves. I would never go there again. If there was a 0 star that would be my rating… I now have to get another test prescription and go to the hospital to do the lab work which should have been said before they pricked me 6 times trying to get blood from me. Horrible waist of time… never had that happen to me before. And I donate blood all the time and do blood work often.

Typically only 1 person working when I come in and takes forever. I get 4 tubes if blood drawn for hypothyroidism tests and bill is over $ 1000…really? Insurance maybe covers half. Is there any wonder why we’ve got a health care crisis in this country?
