Labcorp

I had to wait a tiny bit today. But the girl up front was very polite and professional. I didn’t mind at all.
I went into another facility two days ago and they wanted to charge me $ 398 out of pocket for some testing. I’m so glad I waited. I walked in to lab Corp today and only paid $ 167. I was so relieved I found this place. I don’t have insurance so this made my day.
Thank you so much Lab Corp. I appreciate it.

Legit. Arrived 730a. Got seen immediately. Super nice and friendly. Woot woot. Drew my blood. Pain free. Can you believe that? No pain! So quick and easy too! I hate needles but not scared of them after experiencing this place.

I came here on a Wednesday as a walk in and almost immediately I was helped. The front desk guy however spoke really softly so i had a hard time understanding what he was saying but that’s not a huge problem. So I was helped in less than 5 minutes. The gentlemen that drew my
Blood looked really confident in what he was doing. I have really good veins but at other places they would still miss and fish for it but this guy got it on the first try and honestly it didn’t hurt when he did it except for the fact that I was freaking out at how much blood he was taking. Other than that I definitely would come to this location from now on for their fast service.

My doctor sent me to get some blood work done yesterday to check for allergies. Getting blood drawn puts me into a bit of a panic. I have a rolling vein. That means that when the needle is inserted, the vein moves.
Even though I die a little each time my blood is drawn, I frequent The Red Cross to donate my blood. I warn the techs about my vein and a few have backed out and sent another person to draw my blood. More often than not, I end up with a giant bruise and once in a while my vein clots and I can’t complete my donation.
The kind soul at reception assured me that the techs in this lab were pros and I had nothing to worry about after warning him about my vein. I waited about ten minutes and my name was called, it almost felt like I had volunteered as tribute for the Hunger Games. The gentleman helping me out made me feel comfortable and didn’t panic when he saw my sad, sad little veins in my arm. He poked the needle into my arm and a second later blood was filling up the little vial. It didn’t even hurt and I didn’t feel like I had lost a one of my nine lives.
To my utter amazement this morning I have a tiny itty bitty bruise. For once it doesn’t look like I am the world’s word IV drug user!

I have Aetna PPO. I was asked for my credit card for them to pre-​authorize $ 50. Labcorp would automatically take this amount right away if there would be any balance remaining if Aetna would not pay.
Lapcorp should have billed Aetna then send the balance to the patient. Lapcorp should not have charged both ends, the insurance and the insured.
If any lawyers are reading this, please look into the law to see if lapcorp’s way of conducting business is ethical and legal.
Thanks.

I had an appt at 8:30am today. I was asked to check in. Hand them the paper that the doctor gave me with the details of the blood work and then wait. I only waited maybe 5 mins. I went in and the gentleman who took my blood sample had a problem finding my veins in both arms. He told me he can feel them but they are deep. So he took it from my hand. It was a bit uncomfortable. But it was better than him trying over and over in both arms bruising them up. He got it done in one shot through my hand. I submitted a urine sample and was out within about 10 mins. They made it easy and I liked the staff there.

The guy at the desk was so rude and has an attitude problem. The only way you can schedule an appointment is online but apparently they don’t do drug tests in between 12 – 1:30 but the online system lets you book drug tests for that time. Came in at 12 after driving 30 minutes in traffic to be told to come back. It wouldn’t have been so bad if he’d been more apologetic instead of responding like a jerk and acting so condescending. He acted like it was my fault. I asked if I could schedule an appointment for later that day and he said I would be able to get it done right away. Ended up waiting 20 minutes the second time.
Please get better people to be at the front desk, at least someone less despicable and fix the system so you don’t waste people’s time.

Signed into their Walk In sheet at 3:58pm on a Friday with two people ahead of me. At 4:06, I walked out with a fresh bandage on my arm, minus 3 viles worth of blood, and texted my cousin that I was done already. Quick and efficient: D

In-​and-​out super easily without an appointment on a Friday morning. Labcorp recommends making an appointment ahead of time through their website, so maybe I’ve just gotten lucky. I’ve visited this location twice, and the phlebotomists on both occasions were skilled and quick.
The building is a bit run-​down and busy – I spotted an expired elevator inspection from 2011! Luckily Labcorp’s only on the 2^nd floor, so stairs are an easy option :)

The girl in the front desk made a fuzz about typing my whole last name, and was complaining how long it was to the guy sitting next to her. Then he responded «oh geez, that’s not cool». So rude and unprofessional!

This place wasn’t busy, they were efficient, and we got in and out.
They took the blood without any problems and they open early.
