Sutter Laboratory Ambulatory

This has to be one of the best labs I’ve ever had the «pleasure» of getting tortured. Well I wouldn’t say tortured but getting blood drawn is not my idea of fun. Getting my kids blood drawn is even less of a good time. Well I’ve been to a few but when it comes to my children I will only bring them here.
My son gets blood drawn quite a few times a year. He has Autism and he has the hardest time letting anyone (strangers) touch him. I have always taken him here because although there’s always a different person, they always approach him with lots of patience, lots of compassion and lots of care. I sit my son on my lap and between the phlebotomist and myself we make sure that he is comfortable and that his arm is in a stable position as not to hurt him in the process. Some days are easier than others but it always gets done.
I am writing this review because if you have no issues getting blood drawn than where you go doesn’t really matter but if you have a child with SPECIAL NEEDS then this place is absolutely the one to go to for wonderful staff and getting the job done.
