That is all the Americans Care about. Maybe a Lab should be buzzing with nurses and patients moving through daily. When exam rooms are empty and not enough nurses are employed priorities are way off.

Additionally, the seats in the private "rooms" seemed nice, clean, and comfortable. Personally, I feel that especially because they are a medical clinic they really should offer paper towels in the washrooms. It feels like a budget issue rather than trying to be environmentally friendly. Other than that my visit here felt relatively ok. Staff were professional.

I've been to so many LifeLabs, I've lost count. But BY FAR, this is the absolute best site, hands…read moredown. Here are the reasons: -efficiency. They are appointment-based only. No walk-ins. So you are assured a spot and a time, with minimal waiting. -large and bright office, and impeccably clean. -FREE WI-FI. (This is a real rarity at other lab sites). -more services are offered here than at many other LifeLab sites. Examples: EKG's, cardiac holder monitors, etc. -Professionalism of staff. A female checked me in (I didn't get her name) and although she was somewhat aloof, she was thorough and organized and I had zero wait time. My tech was Ian and he was phenomenal. I have had to get cardiac monitors and EKG's frequently and he was the most thorough when it came to instructions and, wow, they even provide you with a mesh "vest" over the monitor (I never got that before, and it made a huge difference in comfort level and stability). And even upon returning the following day, the staff here remembered me and the whole "disconnect and drop-off" experience was, dare I say, pleasant. My experiences at this site were unlike any I've had at other LifeLabs, and this will be the only site I go to from here on in, for sure.

I didn't know this at the time and when I called up they said I to go back to the location to get one. Why couldn't they give it to me when I was there?! Frustrating. Would have gave 5 stars... But actually getting the results are pretty important.

There's free parking in a lot just on the north side of the lab. They have about 6 "rooms" for collecting blood samples, etc, plus a couple of larger rooms for EKG's, etc. and, 2 washrooms for harvesting urine samples, etc. About the only negative is that it can get very busy here, with substantial wait times during peak periods. At 6:54 AM, there were already 6 or 7 people waiting for the doors to be opened.

When I got there 40 minutes later, the wait time was still 25 minutes. 20 minutes after that, the wait was still 21 minutes. 30 minutes after that the wait was still 20 minutes according to the app. The only good thing was that I went afterwards and vented to the tech and she let us wait inside becuase the person that need the shot was a senior. About 20 minutes after that we were done. It's lucky they lifelabs has a monopoly because If I could, I'd use someone else. Total wait time, close to 2 hours. Yuck.

Front desk staff made me wait 20 minutes even though I had booked an appointment. Several people who were booked in to appointments after me were attended to very quickly as were several walk in patients. No reasonable explanation given. Rudely told to wait as others were attended to first. Asked for blood to be taken from back of my hand as I had done in the recent past in the same office (it is easier and causes less pain that way). The angry staff member raised her voice at me and said it was impossible to do for scientific reasons. A form of medical gaslighting. I was almost in tears. Wanted to request another staff person but felt too intimidated. If they are feeling stressed they should take a break, not be abusive to members of the public. And lying to patients is just a sign of an insane, unstable clinic staff.

My chosen go-to 'LifeLabs' for some family doctor requisitioned blood tests this morning. This was…read morethe second time I had used this particular location for such services. The location of this 'Lab' is tucked away a touch from the general flow in the area. and from personal experiences (daughter's and mine), can often be found a little less-active than others in nearby areas (within New Westminster and Burnaby). I arrived at the location about 5 minutes before the Lab's opening time of 8 am, and stood (as #3) in a line outside. The line had grown to double that amount by the time we were first allowed any entrance to check in. Once inside, the initial checking in process was prompt. The waiting time after though, to be actually processed for the lab procedures took some time, but knowing I was third to be taken helped! When my name was called, I was back to the desk, specific data taken, and then was off to the lab area for the procedures -- which proceeded friendly, quickly, and very efficiently! With smooth, and totally painless needle work by the lab tech at my station!! After a short visit to the 'other' place to make a deposit, I was back to daughter waiting for me outside!

His behaviour was so unprofessional and he lost his temper on me. I visited the clinic to request my history on a particular matter. While he was preparing it, I mentioned to him that another reason for my visit was . . . and he cut me off and shouted at me "What do you mean by another important reason for your visit? Is not getting your history important enough? I can only work on one consultation per visit." I am not exaggerating, he was so furious, and loud. His tone was unprofessional and I wondered how he had ever become a doctor? How does he develop a therapeutic relationship with his clients/ patients? I confronted him for his rude behaviour and he did apologize. Also, I told him, I did not realize a second consultation was required, and if he had any issues, he could have explained himself in a polite/ professional manner. He did try to make up for his behaviour by apologizing and shaking hands before I was leaving etc. However, it was too late, and I will never go back to this clinic.
