I would have given them 5 stars, but I can only give 3 for reasons that will become apparent. They are very organized and punctual. The way they schedule appointments, send you reminders, let you check in from your phone, give you a QR code, and even display initials of your name on the screen in the waiting room is superb. I wish every business implemented these measures. They are super efficient and amazing in this respect. They took me in to draw my blood at the exact same time I was scheduled.
However, the phlebotomist who drew my blood was passive aggressive. He did not say anything offensive to my face, but I can tell that the vibe was off. I asked him two questions and both times he responded with a grunt. He then collected the payment in advance and threw the card back at me. People can have bad days, that is normal. I didn't want to hold it against him. Like he had no manners, was brusque, and he obviously wanted me to feel unwelcome and, through his communication, he wanted to implicitly express his contempt for me. Then there was another lady with a Hello Kitty hat and she and this phlebotomist were gossiping and making comments about other patients. I didn't hear anything outrageous, but this is definitely not something that should be done. She kept prancing around, in and out of the room where this gentleman was drawing my blood. But I wouldn't care. People can gossip. I just didn't like the way the phlebotomist interacted with me in such a scornful and passive aggressive way. I don't know his name. I might be wrong, but I believe it was Tyson. I saw Tyson W. on his desk. It might have been someone else. He was an African American gentleman (I'm only mentioning this to identify him). He can do his job, though, because I felt no pain when he drew my blood. And then he pre-emptively collected my payment even though my insurance covers 100%.I would have given them 5 stars, but I can only give 3 for reasons that will become apparent.
