I was in and out in 2 seconds. Fast, fast, fast. And no I ain't never been skeered 'o dem needles 'n 'at. Ya just gotta buck up for the sting. I lift too, so my veins are easy to find. Everytime I have something like this done, I always get a deep-voiced yinzer chick who sez, "Oooh you got big arms! Lookit dis guy!" And at the ungodly hour of 8 A.M. I needed a chuckle. So if you screw up at work, gotta pee in a cup, or need pricked for whatever test life throws at you, make an appointment here, online yet. Imagine that.

No sooner had I checked in than I was greeted by my lab tech, lab order and insurance given to them, identity confirmed, co-pay payment taken and blood drawn. Snap! Blink! Some pleasant conversational chat, and done! Appointment was 8 am and I was out and in my car at 8:02am. Zippity do dah!

I have been here for mammograms for 3 years. My doctor is in the same building which makes it nice…read more I can have my yearly check up and mammogram in one visit. The Main waiting room can sometimes be full but I have never waited longer than 5-10 minutes to be called for my mammogram. I have gotten the same technician each time. She is incredibly sweet. She takes you back to the office for mammograms. There is a changing room there with a place to put your shirt and bra. They have a waiting room in that office but I've never had to wait there. You are then taken back and the images are taken. It is done quickly but nicely. The tech keeps asking how you are doing. She checks after each image to make sure it's good before moving to the next one. When you are done you go back to the changing room and get dressed. I've also had a breast sonogram done there and it was done in the same manner. The technicians are very kind and explain everything before they take the images or do the sonogram. I highly recommend it.

I said, "I have multiple tests; you should be able to see them in the system." She checked and saw them. She said, "well I'll have to poke you again." Maybe if you had reviewed the list in advance, you wouldn't have to. She went on to say I would owe over $80 for the tests and to give her a credit card. I told her that was an error, as these are standard tests I've received for three decades and also I had met my insurance out of pocket maximum for the year. She would not do the draw without payment. I asked her which tests were showing charges. She said she didn't know and would have to print it out to find out. Okay, so do that... I continued to tell her that was wrong but she would not move forward without payment up front. I refused and did half the tests. I then contacted my insurer and ordering provider to verify all CPT codes and associated diagnoses, and they said everything *IS* covered 100%, but that "Quest does this to a lot of patients and then you have to fight for reimbursement from them." Knowing I have confirmation that nothing on my insurer's or provider's end is misaligned, I set another Quest appointment--at a cost to my PTO--and tried to call Quest to verify they will not have the same story next time, but it was impossible to get anyone on the phone. So, am I satisfied with my last appointment? No. I historically use LabCorp and only used Quest because I work for UPMC and they are the partner that can "see" all the labs. But if this happens again when I go next week, I will no longer use Quest -- and probably will advise patients against it as well given this is apparently common.

i've gone to quest for routine bloodwork. Their offices are always dirty. The waiting rooms are…read moredirty, dingy and depressing. They have an incessant TV commercials running over and over and over again. This becomes a especially aggravating because they constantly overbook and understaff. They request that you make an appointment and provide all your information before your appointment time as the guys to speed things up. Reality is you will wait for over an hour per your appointment. They will give you no notification of delays even though they send texts. I waited 65 minutes my last appointment when I walked in there were 20 people in the waiting room with only two people drawing blood. this is their business model. I spoke with a phlebotomist and she assured me that everybody in the company is aware of that and I've complained to management but management only concern is to maximize profit. They do not care for their patients or their employees. The turnover rate is very high because of their horrific environment. the phlebotomist also shared with me that most patients are so tense from waiting so long that she has difficulty in drawing blood. Avoid this place at all costs.

I was seen by wonderful imaging tech who obviously knew her stuff and moved things right along (the best mammogram techs definitely have some of the best people skills on the planet, if you ask me!). Afterward, I went downstairs to get some blood work done which had been previously ordered by my nurse practitioner. A wonderfully streamlined and nearly 100% painless process, facilitated by a pleasant and highly skilled phlebotomist. It couldn't have gone better. My only concern: at the mammogram check-in, at the front of the patient line next to mine, a prospective patient was being quizzed by a staff member. Seems that the patient was in the prep process for some sort of surgery(?). The staff member seemed quite hard of hearing and spoke incredibly loudly. Everyone in the check-in line, but also those who were in the waiting room 30 feet away, could hear every word as the staffer asked questions. Did the patient have tattoos, piercings, breast augmentations, etc. The patient answered softly and seemed mortified that her business was being broadcast so widely. I have good hearing, but I had to lean in very close to the other staff member to hear what she was telling me because her colleague was speaking so loudly. Perhaps pre-op sessions could be done in a private room(?)
