Labcorp

The lab tech was terrible. She missed my vein and then blamed it on me. Whatever you do, avoid this lab.
My experience here was actually to repeat a third of the labs I had previously done at another Labcorp location because they didn’t transport the blood correctly. In general, I’m losing my patience with Labcorp.

I was in and out of there in ten minutes. No one was in line in front of me when I went at noon on a Thursday so they were able to take me right away with no appointment. The tech was very nice as well and helpful when checking in. Parking is $ 5 for the first 30 minutes and then $ 6 for up to an hour.

these people cannot get their billing straight. they submit incorrectly to the insurance company and expect me to pay for it. not once, but 2 times.

Never thought I’d review a medical establishment, as I work in healthcare, but this experience was ridiculous. I had to go for an occupational drug screen. (I do travel contract work, so I have to do one annually.) Any time I get labs done, whether for personal or professional reasons, I always make an appointment, so I don’t have to wait.
I had to pay for parking, which was annoying, but I knew I’d be out quickly ($ 5 for 30 mins!), so I obliged. I showed up a few minutes late for my 1045 appointment.
I signed in. I waited for a bit in the rather filled room. 15 minutes is longer than I’ve ever had to wait for a lab appointment (especially just to pee in a cup), but I was trying to be patient, especially since I was a few minutes late.
I heard someone at the counter ask about when he’d be seen. I overheard the tech mention that her partner wasn’t there, so she was seeing everyone as fast as she could.
I waited a bit longer, then walked up to the counter. I noticed a paper sitting on the sign in sheet that read, «Sorry. We are not performing any more urine drug screens today.» The tech came to the counter, and I asked her about it. She looked up my appointment time (33 minutes ago, at this point), and said she’d still do it. Then I asked when I’d be seen. She looked at the list, then said she had to do these other people that’d signed in before me. I said that they didn’t have appointments, but I did. Again, she mentioned being there alone. I asked what the point of me making an appointment was, if I had to wait like a walk-​in. She said something about being so busy because she was by herself and quickly walked away.
I didn’t bother talking to her anymore. I walked out and made an appointment at a different location for later in the day. I ended up being there for 38 minutes, so I ended up having to pay an additional $ 1 for parking.
At the other location, I didn’t have to pay for parking, and I was seen on time. When I recounted this experience to that tech, she was shocked — said she works alone all the time, and always honors appointment first because that’s why people make appointments. Precisely.

The nurse and med tech who work here are very nice, patient, and work really quick to get you in and out within about 15 – 20 minutes. Best part is that you can park (for free) in front of the MFAH and walk a short scenic distance to the location.

Super fast service. I didn’t have to book an appt. Just make sure you have your DL on you, and they will get you out of there within 20 minutes.
Don’t call… You will never reach a person, just a recorded message
