Alberta Health Services – Clinic

I needed to get some blood work done and I was happy to find this health clinic conveniently located downtown.
Open Mon.- Fri. from 7am to 4pm, this place was a sure bet for my schedule.
Here’s a couple things I learned from my visit however:
— You can walk in, OR you can book an appointment (which is BY FAR the way to go). I didn’t have an appointment so I ended up waiting 2 hours until I could see someone. That was my bad though. Had I had an appointment, I would have gotten in approximately 30 minutes within my arrival.
— This place felt a little disorganized. There was a lot going on, a lot of people waiting, and it felt like it was very understaffed.
— Getting to this actual lab was a pain in the butt! It was a total maze. They have a million different health places on the same floor (dentists, physio, doctors, YOU NAME IT), so it felt like I walked forever by the time I finally got here.
Overall though, I really appreciate having this health clinic downtown. I will be trying a different one next time though ;)
