I have a love/hate relationship with this place. I love that they allow hemochromatosis patients to…read moregive blood with a prescription but really do not like how difficult they make donating. 1) I've received scar tissue in my arm from bad needle jabs. 2) Scheduling for therapeutic draws is needlessly complex and the donation must be done during M-F, not on the weekends. 3) The attitude is really odd and off-putting, especially compared to the Red Cross where the people they serve seem to be the focus rather than the employee. 4) They don't allow kids on the premises. Red Cross does. Doctors offices do. As a working parent with few babysitting options, this seems pretty inequitable. I love the idea that the blood I have to get out of my body can be used for donations but Bloodworks NW makes it such an obnoxious experience, I will donate at the Red Cross when I can and have my doctor'a office do the phlebotomy and discard the blood when I can't.

Easy, no appointment necessary, for lab work, part of the Providence network…read more After a doctor appointment on the first floor, the doctor requested lab work. I assumed I needed to head up the street to St. Vincent's Medical Center or the East Pavilion, but the doctor said, just go up to the 2nd floor and give them this paperwork. I said, 2nd floor of the Medical Center? No, just take the elevator up one floor. Note, building is in the process of getting painted so there were no signs (4/8/24.) After walking up and down a long hallway with no success, I stopped in a pediatric office and the receptionist told me the lab was in the hallway directly in front of the elevator. Walk across from the elevator, hallway goe off to right, about half way down on the right is LabCorp. The hallways are very sterile with small signage. Once inside, you do a self check in at the kiosk. The machine couldn't read my insurance card, no idea why, so I had to manually type in all the info. This happened to several other people so it definitely warrants being fixed. After that, I took a seat and waited my turn. Some people had set up an appointment so they were in front of me. There is a screen with people's initials so you can see where you are in the queue. My wait was about ten minutes. A little soft background music in the waiting area would enhance the environment. The technician was friendly, efficient, and most important, skilled. Hit the vein first time even though I was a bit dehydrated, and a minute later, done. I have an order for a repeat test for early June, and now that I know this lab exists, I'll stop here. There is a parking lot right out front, easy exit off 26, very convenient.

Generally the staff is competent, friendly and my waits for my appointment are not long. However,…read morethe problem is communication with my OHSU clinic. 100% of the time I am told by the staff that I have no order from my doctor. This is because my clinic and their medical organization fax orders to labcorp instead of using an electronic system. This means that labcorp staff need to know the day the order was received and then search through all the faxes received that day. I don't really know when the order was received by them. Last time I had to get my clinic to fax the order again, and had to wait around for that. This time I'm going to bring a paper copy of the order. The communication is broken on the other end as well. My clinic never sees the results since they come via fax to a phone number they don't check, or at least not regularly. So, I download the results from labcorp's site and attach them to a mychart message. I fault primarily labcorp, but also my clinic and their organization, my insurance company (who requires me to use a lab that doesn't communicate well with my medical provider) and myself for not making more noise about this. (I'm trying to remedy that with this review.)

The wait time? Absolutely legendary. I arrived when the sun was up. I left when I had developed a deeper understanding of patience than any meditation retreat could ever teach. I'm pretty sure I watched the entire lifecycle of a houseplant while sitting there. Understaffed doesn't even begin to describe it. It felt like three employees were trying to run an operation built for thirty. Phones ringing, lines backing up, people waiting everywhere, and the few staff members present looked like they were moving in slow motion. Not rushed. Not hustling. Just... gliding through time at a pace that suggested they had nowhere to be for the next decade. Every step took forever. Check-in? Forever. Screening? Forever. Actually getting seated? A saga. I've seen sloths show more urgency crossing a road. The frustrating part isn't even the wait, it's that you can clearly see the bottleneck happening in real time. People stacked up. Staff casually strolling between stations. No sense of urgency. No communication about delays. Just vibes and fluorescent lighting. If you have absolutely nothing else to do for the next several hours and you enjoy watching efficiency take a personal day, this might be your spot. If there were an Olympic event for "Turning 45 Minutes Into an Existential Crisis," this place would take gold, silver, and bronze. The atmosphere? Imagine a DMV that lost its will to live, mixed with fluorescent lighting bright enough to interrogate a superhero. The chairs have the personality of unsalted rice cakes. The energy in the room felt like everyone collectively realized they forgot to move their laundry to the dryer. Customer service? Let's just say I've had more warmth from an automated "Your call is important to us" message. I wasn't greeted , I was processed. I half expected someone to stamp "Fragile: Handle With Mild Indifference" on my forehead. The worst part isn't even the wait -- it's that they know they're bad and do absolutely nothing about it. Every complaint gets the same copy-paste "Sorry you had a bad experience, we're committed to improving" response... and then nothing changes. Same long waits. Same understaffed shifts. Same slow process. At some point it stops being a mistake and starts being the standard. And the paperwork. Oh, the paperwork. I'm fairly certain I signed something that gave them naming rights to my firstborn. By page 47, I was just autographing out of muscle memory. By the end of it all, I walked out feeling like I had just completed a side quest in a video game I didn't agree to start. Would I return? Only if stranded in a desert and the only way home required donating plasma to power a spaceship. One star. And that star is for the parking lot, which at least had clear lines.

The quality of care is phenomenal, the staff really care about their patients and the amount of times they checked in on her was so comforting. Unfortunately a different cancer took her earlier this month but instead of 3 months we got almost a year with her thanks to Dr. Pham's team and the rest of the wonderful staff! When we informed them of her passing, everyone we spoke to was so sad to hear about it as they had all taken the time to get to know her and then they sent the sweetest sympathy card to us, I know their hearts were hurting almost as much as ours. My mom was always treated with urgency but respect, always made to feel like her concerns were heard and addressed quickly and that her comfort was top priority. I can't thank them enough and recommend them to anyone I've come across that has any form of cancer.

THEY WILL NOT CARE ABOUT YOUR PAIN.... I was a breast cancer…read morepatient of theirs and two months into my chemotherapy developed horribly life-altering reaction to the chemo (Paclitaxel). My feet and hands were numb until I would step on something or brush anything up against the tips of my toes or my fingers. Quality of life was zero. When I tried to get them to help me, they pretty much ignored my pain. They didn't do anything. I'm hold that cancer doctors are supposed to help with your pain to keep you from suffering and to allow you to be able to continue your treatment. Well I didn't get anything like that. I even refused treatment because I couldn't take any more pain from the cumulative effect of the chemo. It wasn't until today, one month after refusing treatments and putting in a referral request to go to the Knight Center with OHSU that they called and offered me an appointment with their Dr Windler, because they were concerned about my pain. Not after the first refusal of treatment, nor the second or third. Only when I requested to be transferred somewhere else did they offer me an appointment. I cannot believe how badly I have suffered. And even though it's been 4 weeks since I had treatment I am still suffering. The neuropathy and numbness continue. I can only hope my new doctor will be more understanding. Avoid this place at all costs. They're more concerned with how they look and what they can get from you and not how you actually feel as a human being going through chemotherapy. They even kept reporting in my medications file all the things that they gave me before and during chemo treatment and the chemotherapy that I received. And they even did that for the days I refused treatment and was not there. They scam you. Ridiculous.

I worked in the medical field and when she said that to me, I just thought, "Did you really just say that? You're joking. This is a joke." It was so painful I cried out. If the techs at Kaiser can take your blood and you almost don't feel it, why can't the Red Cross Folks, who do this all day, day in and day out, be trained as well? It should not have hurt like that. There was no option to opt out of "donating" your blood to scientific testing. NO OPTION. Either "help save lives and you must donate to scientific testing, including third parties who we sell your blood to (this was in the paperwork that you have to read before you do it), or do not help save lives." When I told the gal that when my step dad died, he required a lot of blood and that's why I was doing this, she said, "I'm sorry... Did he make it?" And, finally, the "snacks" were mini oreos and unhealthy foods. Not even an orange to replace electrolytes and fluids. I mean, we give you our blood and you give us... the inability to opt out of having third parties scientifically test our blood and some mini oreo cookies, cheese its, greasy/stale peanuts, and small Mrs. Fields cookies. If I needed to replenish my blood and health, why would I eat an Oreo? To poison myself? At the end, the gal said "You saved three lives today." And I looked at her, the gal who I'd just told that my step dad died, and thought... Well, I personally witnessed someone require a lot of blood and die in front of me. So... no. You have no idea. I will never donate through you again.
