Ya know...you have to judge a business on what they can control. So, you know what, Labcorp did a…read moregreat job. What they couldn't control: -people who don't check in and bombard the front desk staff. They are there to verify your insurance and your lab requisition The front desk person was super nice and the phlebotomist, Trina, was amazing. She was so sweet to my grandma. She took her time assessing which arm to use and did it in one shot. Lemme give y'all some tips. Check in on your phone or on their kiosk 10-15 mins before your appt. Don't expect a timely walk in. This location is super busy. Check in, sit down, and they'll call your name. The front desk person does not check you in. The kiosk does.

Very slowww staff today even by appointment only. Bummer! People are stocked up waiting…read more Although they are still accepting walk-ins. Lab tech is calling walk-ins ahead of appointments. And taking so much time between patients. After being called, lab tech have a very heavy hand. He shoved the needle into the vein to draw blood. When I said, it hurts a lot more! He said, because your arm is bent. I always have my arm positioned the same way as before but it didn't hurt before. As I walked out, I told the other patients waiting for their turn; "it hurts, you are an in for a torture. He has a very heavy hand!" So anyway, even with an appointment, I waited for almost an hour before being called and being assaulted by the lab technician.

My experience with Quest Diagnostics has been a mix of frustration and relief, depending on which…read morepart of the visit you're in. The check-in process feels cold and impersonal. There is no traditional front desk and no staff member readily available to guide you, which can be confusing, especially if it's your first time or if you're already feeling anxious. You're left to figure things out on your own using the kiosk, and the overall atmosphere in the waiting area feels a bit unwelcoming. That part is definitely a drawback. That said, once you are called in for the actual blood draw, the experience improves dramatically. The phlebotomists are skilled, patient, and professional. I am extremely nervous around needles and have a history of feeling faint, so this is not something I take lightly. The staff here take their time, explain what they are doing, and make sure you are comfortable throughout the process. I have consistently felt like I was in capable hands. They are also very gentle and efficient. I have never experienced bruising here, which has not always been the case elsewhere. Compared to Labcorp, where my husband had a difficult experience with multiple unsuccessful attempts, Quest has been much more reliable. So while the front-end experience could really use improvement, the quality of care during the blood draw itself makes a big difference. If you are someone who is anxious about needles, the professionalism and skill of the staff here can make the visit much easier.

Everyone's entitled to their opinion right?…read more I've been to a few Quest locations and honestly imo it always comes down to the tech. I'm not an easy draw. I'm talky, nervous, anxious and just can't relax. HUGE HUGE HUGE SHOUTOUT TO ANTOINETTE. She was kind, understanding, patient and gentle. Really appreciated her style and skill set. Thanks Antoinette ima fan!

1/5 Stars -- Absolutely Unacceptable Service, Poor Time Management, and Complete Disregard for…read morePatients' Time I am beyond frustrated and absolutely disgusted with the level of inefficiency and lack of urgency I experienced at this laboratory. What should have been a simple, routine blood draw turned into an unbelievable waste of over an hour and a half of my time. There is absolutely no excuse for this level of service. What made this experience even more infuriating was watching how poorly time was managed. An excessive amount of time was spent attending to a single patient while everyone else was left waiting. On top of that, the amount of time spent charting, idling, and moving at an unnecessarily slow pace was incredibly frustrating to witness. There appeared to be very little urgency or consideration for the patients who had been sitting there waiting to be seen. As someone who has personally worked in a high-volume clinical laboratory, I find this level of inefficiency completely unacceptable. I understand firsthand the responsibilities of laboratory personnel, including patient identification, specimen collection, documentation, and maintaining proper safety protocols. I also understand that certain patients require additional attention and that accurate charting is essential. However, those responsibilities do not excuse what appeared to be an extremely disorganized workflow and a complete lack of effective time management. I have worked in environments where patient volumes were significantly demanding, yet we understood the importance of maintaining efficiency, prioritizing workflow, and respecting every patient's time without compromising patient safety or quality of care. It is absolutely possible to be thorough, professional, and efficient simultaneously. What frustrates me the most is that this wait felt entirely preventable. Based on what I observed, there were multiple opportunities to improve patient flow and reduce unnecessary delays. Instead, patients were left sitting around while time continued to pass with seemingly little progress. People have jobs, families, appointments, obligations, and responsibilities. Not everyone has the luxury of sitting in a waiting room for nearly two hours for a procedure that typically takes only a few minutes. Patients' time is valuable, and treating it as though it means absolutely nothing is disrespectful and unacceptable. What is even more disappointing is that this is a healthcare environment, where professionalism, organization, accountability, and efficiency should be fundamental expectations rather than optional qualities. Patients should not have to suffer the consequences of what appears to be poor workflow management. I am not expecting employees to rush through procedures, compromise patient safety, or neglect proper documentation. I am expecting basic competence in managing patient volume, maintaining an organized workflow, and recognizing when excessive delays are becoming unreasonable. Frankly, this experience left me feeling irritated, disrespected, and completely disappointed. It is embarrassing to see a laboratory operate this inefficiently, especially when I know from professional experience that a high-volume laboratory can function far more effectively with proper coordination and time management. Management seriously needs to evaluate how this location operates. Whether the issue is staffing, training, workflow, accountability, or a combination of these factors, something clearly needs improvement. I should not have to sacrifice over 90 minutes of my day for a routine blood draw while watching what appeared to be preventable delays. My time matters. Every patient's time matters. And frankly, this entire experience was an absolute disgrace in terms of operational efficiency and patient service. I left extremely dissatisfied, and based on this experience, I would have a very difficult time recommending this location to anyone who values their time. Do better. Patients deserve better. This is completely unacceptable.

A long overdue review. I will need to make it short, but would like to praise Peninsula Hospital…read morefor the very attentive care I received in 2011 for a major surgery. Fast forward to 2022 when I came down with covid - I had a horrendous experience in the emergency room - I could hear staff chatting away as though they were junior high kids at a party in another room. The ER doctor at that time told me I had "severe covid" and needed medication - a medication that had been understood would destroy a person's kidneys in a short amount of time. I refused the medication. I could mention many other concerning things about my treatment in the emergency room that night, but honestly, this review would end up being much too long. The good news is when I was admitted to a room on the 4th floor it was a different staff and they were great. I asked the doctor who came to see me if I had "severe" covid (as the emergency room doc said) and she said, "no, it's mild, but you are dehydrated and your electrolytes are off." Wow, how could one doctor say "It's severe and you need to have medication" (that will cause harm to my kidneys) and the other have a completely different diagnosis? The 4th floor staff took good care of me the remaining days I was there. Then in 2023, I ended up needing emergency room care again, and an xray tech walked in and said he needed a scan of my heart; I reminded him that due to my health situation (from a previous diagnosis) recommends for me to be careful about having too many xrays, and he said in a gruff tone, "Well, I need to do this anyway," and acted like he could care less. It is my understanding that all over our country, the best nurses and medical staff left their jobs because they knew the vaccines were not fully tested and they were being required to get the covid vaccine in order to keep their jobs. It seems the smart ones left and, unfortuantely, I get the impression that they've had to hire less-than-competent staff since then. I'm hope there have been some improvements to staff and training since 2022 and 2023.
