Jennifer was very kind and caring about my well being upon my arrival. I got emotional for some reason and she could not have been any sweeter to me. Dr McLeod asked me so many questions and I felt very validated about the pain I'm experiencing. I felt more heard than I have in a very long time!!

The lab has unskilled and uncaring staff. Unprofessional. The bathroom where I needed to collect urine was dirty. Blood spots on the floor and urine drops on the toilet. No toilet seat covers either. This is the second time in three weeks I've been to this lab and the experience has been unpleasant. The first time the phlebotomist didn't know what she was doing and kept calling someone else to ask questions. Then Lab Corp didn't receive the vial for the Copeptin analysis labeled properly so they didn't know what to do with the blood vial.

Great experience as always! However, a recommendation to work on the lab. The line was too long probably due to the kiosk, which is not user friendly, and it takes forever to complete.

Dr. McLeod is kind, caring, professional, intuitive and proactive. She listens and immediately works towards the solution. I trust her brilliance and instincts completely. And she is quick to respond whenever I reach out to her with questions or concerns. I am truly blessed that my care is in her capable hands. Her staff is excellent - the lady at the front desk and the nurse are also professional, pleasant, kind and concerned.
