Quest Diagnostics

What a difference a location makes. Yesterday I went to Quest in Ridgewood, Queens to be treated so badly I walked out before getting my blood taken. The woman there was abrupt, rude and talked to me as if I was a disobedient child. I had made an appointment but it looked like that was to make no difference. She wielded her power as the sole person there with an grubby iron fist and zero bedside manner.
This location is a dream. It’s a little hard to find but exceptionally clean and efficient. I was seen and out within 15 minutes (I had an appointment). The technician was efficient without being abrupt. The blood draw was virtually painless (I’ve had bad experiences).
I will go back here again, even though it is some distance from my home, it will be well worth it in peace of mind and expediency.

if you have an appointment you will be seen on time

I made a 9AM appointment and I was seen promptly at 9AM. The scheduled appointments before me were all seen on time as well. I was out of there by 910AM, including the time where my insurance was ran and I paid my co-​pay. The actual lab draw process took about 1 minute total. The office is no frills but it is clean. No wasted time with small-​talk but still pleasant. I definitely recommend this location.

My mom came here last time and there were only 3 other people before her. The wait was rediculous… but everything else was fine.
Today, my sister came here for a blood test. There was no wait but he bruised my sister while pulling the needle out. It is unknown to why he was pushing the cotton down with pressure WHILE pulling the needle out. Not only is that painful but it increases the probability of breaking the needle inside and cause bruising. That was the only negative thing from this visit.
**it looks neat there**

TOO AGGRESSIVE! The Chinese doctor did not talk to me so I’m not confident he can treat me singularly for my problems — not all bodies can handle so much handling! CAUTION

The entire office is closed from 12pm-​1pm for lunch break because there’s only one person.
He’s the man. Although he doesn’t abide by «appointments take priority» since a walk-​in got called before me even though we got in the same time. It was an old lady so whatever.
He’s fast. He stabs me in the arms and take 4 tubes of blood then tells me to go take a piss. I do as told and the whole thing was over in less than 10 mins. I swear I thought he was only taking one tube. He takes blood so fast Edward Cullen would be ashamed.

Newly constructed office back in August 2011 very few people it seems knew about it as I was the only «patient»: the same woman behind the counter was the same woman who took my blood. Handed her my doctor’s note and (Aetna) Insurance card, got poked, wiped the tears from my eyes, and walked out in 20 minutes.
