LabCorp

Every time I stop for flood work it always very slow they only have 2 people working and they have to do everything paper work and get blood test or any test when you are at the front desk when you sign you name !!! And then you sit they call your name and they star asking any question and everyone can hear everything I always tough all this medical stuff it should be private … And the people sometimes they are not real friendly at all it look like they are doing is a favor for been here …

May 2013– Stopped by to see if the 2 orders for test needed anything (one order required 5 vials) place closed for lunch, returned 1 hr. later and staff was far from friendly. They appeared tired, over worked and disinterested. They asked me if Dr. wanted me to fast before blood work (they were too uninterested to look at the order otherwise they would have seen CBC Complete as one of the tests). They told me to call for appointment. Went home called, couldn’t get me appointment till 5 days later. The person on the phone assured me that the tests would be ready for my appointment the next week. Just returned from there… desk was friendly but the tech, Marianne, started by pointing (with her back to me) vaguely to two seats along the wall, I sat where she pointed and told her I was left handed, she told me no move closer to her, I got up and moved, then she started complaining to another employee about how expensive apartments were and that «they» (Lab Corp) didn’t pay enough to afford one. When she turned her attention on me I told her again that I was left handed. She asked for both arms looked and before any compression she chose my left (It was closer to her). She then stuck me hard enough for me to cry out loudly! She said «Oh, so sorry baby. Are you Okay?» I am in tears at this point. She finishes and then tells me not to carry my purse in my left hand. I remind her that I am left handed. The woman show no compassion or concern for my obvious pain that she had inflicted. I left in a hurry, in pain and very sorry I had my tests done there. I will never return there, I will go out of my way to get tests elsewhere, and I will continue to spread the word of my painful experience at the hands of LabCorp.
The test results were not in by the time my appointment day arrived, I had to reschedule another 10 days later with my physician.
June 2013– I just returned from another blood test taken at another company (Harris Family Medical Center) and the tech didn’t hesitate to draw from my right arm after I mentioned I’m left handed. She was gentle and I was in and out of the facility quickly and most importantly without pain.
