I came to this Labcorp location for some blood work and had an appointment for 7:15 a.m. I was pretty surprised that to see a long line of people who also had 7:15 appointments, along with another line for walk-ins. Despite the long lines, I was actually impressed how efficiently they were moving people through. They only allowed a certain number of people in the lobby at a time, and I also noticed they had an employee helping people check in. I didn't get called right at 7:15 and was eventually called around 7:30, but once I was called in, the blood draw was pretty quick. Overall, not a bad Labcorp location for getting blood work done. There was a bit of a wait, but the process was organized and efficient despite how busy they were. read more

I am someone who has been to plenty of phlebotomists and I have to say Sharon was the best! When I was waiting for my turn, I could hear her talking to other patients, very engaged, and has the genuine feel that she loves what she does. She is so bubbly, kind, and wonderful! And the best part is, I couldn't even feel the needle stick! It was such a quick in and out! The ladies at the front desk were also very sweet and got everyone in and out efficiently! read more

Toook my grandmother here for lab work. The facility is not clean, no handwashing/sanitizing is happening between patients. The techs are not good at drawing blood, and the check in process is confusing and difficult. There is a handwashing station in the main core area and there is NO soap dispenser by the sink. The bathrooms are filthy dirty and there is hair all over the floors. Won't be back. read more

Labcorp - Handwashing station for lab techs - Laboratory Testing Near Me - Torrance, California

Made an online appointment for lab tests. Arrived 10 minutes early and used their kiosk to check in. My name was called immediately and I was instructed to go to one of their semi private rooms. My phlebotomist came in. She was friendly and was able to draw my blood without any pain. The facilty was clean and bright. I was in and out in 20 minutes total read more

Blood draws are not my favorite but necessary. This Torrance location is located close to Little Company of Mary Hospital and offers certain Saturday hours. I usually check the Labcorp website and find which location has Saturday morning hours and schedule an appointment. When I schedule I make sure my insurance and my information is up to date. I get both an email and text message of my future appointment. When it is the day of my appointment, I make sure the paperwork from my provider is with me to turn in. Once in Labcorp's hallway or building, I check in via my text message. When I enter Labcorp I can see my name is already on their screen as checked in. Then it is just minutes until I am called. The phlebotomists that I have had on the last couple of visits have all been pleasant and professional. This last one even gave me cute dog and cat stickers that say "I was brave." Aww, check out the photo. 4 stars. read more

I don't know why these guys get such a low grade. If you make an appointment, it should be a breeze. The staff is friendly for the most part. The technicians are well trained and find a vein quickly without jabbing you multiple times like they're playing where's Waldo. Quick in and out. It might be different for a walk in but that's not their fault. I absolutely love this location and the one right across the west side of Torrance Memorial Hospital. They've done great the past couple of visits. read more

What a nightmare! I had an appointment and wait so long it was ridiculous. So many walk-ins.

Bring a book to read and be prepared to wait 1 hour and 30 minutes. I was number 5 in line as a walk in at 6:45am.. I tried to make an appt and prepare ahead of time, but no appointments available. Have your lab orders, identification and ,insurance information ready. Modern technology scans all this in. Then you go to a window to register. They get your phone number and tell you to wait in the car and they call you. This location and surrounding locations all process about 160 patients a day. PRO TIP: plan ahead and make an appointment. read more

The office is on the second floor. It is extremely small and they don't want you to stand outside in the hallway due to fire hazard. There are about a dozen chairs in the office and about another dozen people standing waiting. I am sure there is some sore of a fire hazard with that situation as well. read more

Staff is "nice" but common sense is not being used for the check in process. They're instructing elderly and disabled people to check in on the tablet , which to me should be common sense most will need assistance with that.... Then you check in on the tablet and it may not have even checked you in as it said... so that means you wait almost two hours and watch people come in after you... try to "check in" again it's only going to push your appointment back. For this to be a medical setting, staff should have developed a more streamlined process because they face this everyday.. people with wheelchairs, canes don't have anywhere to sit read more

Quick easy check in and quality care and excellent office staff. I usually have problems when it comes to getting me blood drawn because of my veins, but this place was able to find a workable location with minimal bruising. read more

With labcorp the trick is to make an appointment forget about walk ins and come twenty minutes earlier. I love how Covid cautious the people are they even offer masks and space. They have three working computers to handle the people load. The office is very clean and the people are very nice and organized. My appointment was at 10:45 so they called me then to confirm paperwork and told me next chair that opens up will be me. They actually tell walks ins how long it will be! I got my blood drawn at almost 11 and left around 11:12. The lady Liz who took my blood was so amazing and gentle. The only criticism I have is they need one or two more desk people to handle the load. ( in this job market it's definitely doable.) read more

Do your mental health a favor and dont come here. This is like going to the DMV. Front desk staff aren't friendly. We sign in on the kiosk and when you go up they still ask coldly for your info. And it's an issue if you ask a question to try and get clarification to help yourself through the appointment. The techs are nicer but if the people of "first impressions" aren't welcoming the techs will find themselves without patients. Other locations in the area will check you if they don't have a patient in front of them. Here it's a quick dismissal "CHECK IN AT KIOSK" I dont give bad reviews lightly. This is my 3rd time here, 1 for me, 1 for my husband , 1 for my daughter. My daughter has been here twice and same experience for her. They need to remember, people coming here may need more compassion or kindness. read more

Hi. I have to go here every 6 months to give a blood sample to test My Thyroid. The staff are nice and very kind when inserting the needle. it dont even hurt. They are very good at what They do. thank You so much for the gentle touch! be back soon. peace. Wayde. H. read more

I have never had any issues with this lab corp in Torrance. I find the staff very helpful. It is very easy to do a walk, in after lunch time. Great parking. read more

This location is not closed, as ot said on Yelp. I have been taking my parents and myself here for the past few years for our routine blood work. They are well organized, and service is rapid, unlike other locations or compared to Quest. The facility is clean and bright. They have 5 draw stations, but most of the time, understaffed. read more

Place has gone downhill! Been here over two hours with an appointment. Doesn't seem like I'm getting in today even with appointment! They've called 3 people back for blood draw within 2 hours!!!!!! Unreal. read more

[Review #708] 2022 Yelp 100 Challenge (29/100) There's several LabCorps located in the South Bay. I chose the 20911 Earl St., Suite 250 because of its early start time & distance to my daughter's school. The facility is located between Maricopa & Emerald Streets with a private lot... plenty of open parking at 7:00 AM. The lab located on the 2nd floor of the Kenneth E. Watts Medical Plaza, a directional sign guides you to LabCorp upon exiting the elevators. We came on Friday morning just after opening. With only a couple of people with appointments, we were walk-ins & seen right away after check-in. The check-in process is fast & easy -- 4 kiosks that scans your ID & insurance card. I had to enter a few details because it was my daughter getting her labs done, then I showed my insurance card, turned in the lab paperwork, & was in... all this took about 3-mins. We waited a couple of mins. & was seen by lab technician, Karisha. I informed her this was H's 1st blood draw, excluding infancy. She was super nice, thoughtful, & gentle... asking questions about her for distraction, explaining the process & each step she's taking. Just a pinch, H only flinched a little, no tears; a bigger & braver girl than I ever was. I cried at my labs, & sometimes still do. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It only took a couple of mins. & then another 2 for the urine sample, in & out in about 20-mins. This LabCorp location is clean, organized, & efficient; the results were sent directly to our pediatrician's office -- what a fast turnaround! We had a Tuesday afternoon appointment, & H's pediatrician received the results to discuss the next steps. The lab technician was friendly, gentle, & patient that my daughter felt comfortable & wasn't traumatized by the experience. We'll likely be back for follow-up lab work. I recommend this facility for your diagnostic needs. Wishing y'all good results & great health! read more

Doesn't know how to work with young children. Took my two year old and it was the worse experience ever. Didn't get lab work done.

Made an appointment for an 8:45am fasting lab. I arrived 15 min prior according to the instructions from Labcorp. I wasn't see until 9:30. I was sent a link to check in when I arrived. After checking in on my phone I received a text indicating that I would receive a text when they were ready to see me. I never received a message. When I arrived both the hallway and reception area were filled. Another person waiting told me that I needed to check in via the device in the office. read more

Hello to all whom may reads this, Everything was normally upon my arrival, there was a couple of people behind me without an appointment just a show up like myself, and some how they were call before me, I ask the lady behind the desk why and she said with an attitude, we have your paper, this place is within walking distance of my home, how every after today I will never come here again. Because of how rude she was and she never answered the question as to why they were called yet before me with out an appointment, This place now has very unpleasant and professional. read more

I'm not sure why there are so many bad reviews for this office. Everyone who worked here was friendly, efficient and they were very timely in how they worked through all of the patients. I was very impressed and had a smooth, easy experience. read more

El sistema de ahora no sirve llegué a las 7 y hice cita a las 8:15 y son 8:50 y le digo a la muchacha y me Dice siéntese espere que se hacen varias citas a las 8:15 entonces cuál es el punto de hacer cita antes era mejor Y luego el personal de Enfrente contestan de una manera poco respetuosa así que ya no creo regresar eso ya es por tercera vez creo que no están listos para citas read more

This is one of the few Labcorps in this area that is open on Saturdays so I really appreciate that. I've been in 5-6 times at this location to draw blood and for the most part the staff have been good. Today, however, there was a front desk staff member (woman with braids in a bun) who was really rude and bent on wasting patients' time. There was no one there other than me and she just stared at her phone instead of processing my paperwork. The only thing I was happy about is that she didn't draw my blood. Frustrating when you have to take time off of work to do this but they just waste your time and could care less. I wish management was more involved. Note - if you need testing done, you may need to get there at least 30 minutes before closing. read more

Labcorp - This is their hours posted outside their door. A lot of the locations' hours posted on Labcorp's website were incorrect. - Laboratory Testing Near Me - Torrance, California

I am a 70-year-old with Type 2 Diabetes. I was a walk-in customer. I told the staff that I had been fasting. Mark, the man who checked in after me, was allowed to go before me without regard to the order in which we arrived. That is unacceptable behavior and I will not be returning to this location. read more

I would agree with the previous comment. They definitely don't deserve a one star. The front desk was very rude and seemed to ignore everyone waiting. Doesn't seem like they wanted to be there. Sent everyone to the kiosk to check in whether they had questions or not while not even looking up from the desk or making any kind of eye contact. The back staff was nice and considerate. Definitely should be able to rate the front and back separately read more

KARISHA was great! She wasnt all that nice when checking in, but she was professional. She drew my blood in less than 5 minutes AND there was absolutely no pain involved. She was fast, efficient, and super friendly once I kept harassing her lmmfao! Coming from an office that took 5 tries and popped a vein to get blood, KARISHA made it seem effortless!!! She was truly a godsend because I hate needles and I hate going to the Dr lol. Now as far as the other people who come here (and most of em are either raggedy or entitled), they have no control over that. The facility itself aint the Ritz Carlton, but they get the job done! Thank you KARISHA boo! read more

Everything at this location could be improved. I am writing this review in real time. I have sat here for almost 4 hrs. Admittedly I didn't have an appointment but they are very slow and unorganized. They take walk-ins out of order. They told me I was just waiting for a room and acted like I would be next. I was not next. I still have not been called and it's 2:32. They close at 3pm I have been here since 11:10am. Being a fasting diabetic who is starving doesn't seem to matter to anyone who works here. I would leave but I've now wasted so much of my one day off this week I just can't now. I mean what's another 1/2 hour when you have already waited 3 ? Never and I mean Never come without an appt. To this lab corp. read more

Ridiculous wait. Made an appointment and still had to wait over an hour. Poorly managed won't come back

Horrible service! If I could give them ZERO stars I so would! They were so unprofessional and rude and just overall not welcoming. My appointment was at 1:45pm and when I walked in the lady in the front was super rude and her attitude was not good. She told me to either come back or lose my appointment completely, like seriously!?!? So I left and right when I get home at 2:23 I just got their message saying that they are ready to see me! They were just super rude and overall disrespectful! Never coming again! read more

The woman at the front desk is rude and miserable. She needs to be trained on how to be more professional and not be on her personal phone during work hours. Surprised that she still holds this position with all the complaints about her in the reviews below. read more

This Labcorp opens at 7 am and has free parking. The negative reviews scared me. I needed a urine culture and didn't have an appointment. I was in and out in 10 minutes. The front desk was courteous. read more

Came to get my blood drawn for my upcoming appointment with my Doctor. They open at 7 and by 7:01 there was maybe 20 people in line. They didn't open the door to the office e until after 7:10. One of check in machines didn't work, I notified the front desk, she said she would look in to it and never did. Over all the customer service is terrible, no greeting or apology for opening the office late, they were still cleaning and setting up when I got to the back. I'm definitely going to ask my doctor where else I could go besides here. read more

This place is a hit or miss . I came to Labcorp on Monday, since it was a a holiday it was easy , waited 45 minutes to be seen . The person who saw me . She was very respectful , friendly & discreet. Meaning she wasn't yelling my name and birth like other do . She was super friendly and when she poked me , it was painless read more

It says they will open at 7am but i came saturday 7:43am and the line was so long from door to all the way hallway to the elevator, and they finally opened at 7:50am. Wow, wasted time to those people need to go another important stuff to do. This business needs to put there open time at 8am if thats case they take their time to open. Then stafff are coughing. And i found out from other client that when they close, they close 15 mins before the time. So they open late and close early. They should fix the time of open and close times read more

I would give this place zero stars if possible. I have never met front desk people that are so rude and callus. They were so unhelpful. My 5 year old son had a fasting blood draw needed, and it's impossible to schedule a morning appointment so we decided to go early morning. There was a line out the door and when we asked how long the wait would be the woman said nothing, shrugged her shoulders and pointed at the line. This is the 3rd time coming here with the rudest staff in the world. I would like to let everyone know that this location is prob one of their worst. read more

Aga had excellent customer service everybody's friendly. Quick and efficient. I can tell if if they get feisty people they can handle them well which is pretty cool read more

Front office person is horrible! She doesn't acknowledge any one, was short on the phone while I was waiting. Gave no direction/instructions just kept referring to the tablet, which are towards the back, so a 1st timer is on their own! Nope! Makes you be concerned about what to expect in the back. Not recommended. read more

Very kind, helpful and pleasant. The place has a good feel and a welcoming environment. Need all that when you have to go somewhere to get poked by a needle! read more

I had to get some bloodwork, and of course, it was a last-minute situation, so I couldn't make an appointment because appointments were not available until December. The website didn't mention anything about walk-ins, so I panicked a little. Luckily, one of my coworkers mentioned that she went on a Saturday and was able to walk in. BUT, she said that when she went, the line was super long. So she advised me to go early. They open at 7:30a, so I got there at 6:50a. When I arrived, there were already two people lined up. When 7:30a came, they let four people in at a time. They have kiosks where we check-in and input your info. That took only 2 mins, and after checking in, I was able to go in the room. The lady was super quick, and I was out by 7:45a. With that being said, I HIGHLY recommend getting there early or else expect to be there all day. The staff was nice and helpful. I'm so grateful for my coworker! She saved me hours of my time. :) read more
