| - This is the only location with weekend hours, which used to be 24 hours, but recently changed to closing at midnight (weekend).
I'm a fan (hence the 4 stars), but since last sunday's two hour wait, I would not recommend coming here after lunch on sunday (see, everyone had the same idea that day). I would suggest either getting an appointment (www.questdiagnostics.com) or getting here really early if you're still planning on coming here on saturday or sunday (bring a book or something to help time pass). The waiting room was filled halfway when we arrived (should've been a sign). But the waiting room and in the hallway, too, was filled with people, by the time I was seen for a blood test. If I was told at check-in, that it was at least an hour and a half out, I would've sent my husband to get an errand done, I would've brought something to keep me occupied (yeah, I went through my purse, to organize it) and I wouldn't have been so antsy. It was a long while that people were being called back there. One guy left (carrying his bike wheel), and he had an appointment! After a while, some other people checked to see when they would be seen, including me. The rep told me that it would be about 15 minutes more because three people were in front of me (that didn't seem so bad, right, but it was actually 30 minutes). Someone told us that she was taking a urine test, so she was holding it (poor thing). I'd never seen it this packed before and I've been here many, many times (another reason for the 4 stars).
Once I was called back there, the phlebotomist told me that everyone left and didn't volunteer even after seeing that the waiting room was filled almost to capacity. She asked me to make sure that my information was correct on the label (that's new). Also, I was asked to sign a form (that's new too). She was very nice.
Also, the lady checking people in, was going back there, too, since she was also a phlebotomist- talk about double-duty. So the line to check-in got pretty long too.
There is a security guard in a little office to the right, upon entering the building.
In a nutshell: clean location, with many seats available, courteous staff, ample parking lot, open on weekends (get here early).
