4/5
I’ve been here a lot since I’ve been in the area for a while, so I feel like I’ve really figured it out. The issues I have with them seem like an issue with Quest itself, not this location.
If you schedule an appointment you’re unlikely to have to wait long. I would highly recommend confirming your doctor sent your order in before you go so there’s no issues. If you do a walk in, wait times are going to be long. Just know that it can be an hour or more, so bring a book or something. They’re crazy busy here at all hours of the day. Mornings are insane.
Employees are kind and do their best to help, but they’re expected to do a LOT. Like they check your insurance, find your lab orders, collect payment when needed, assist those having trouble with finding orders or checking in, and do the actual blood draws and such. I’ve never had them tell me anything incorrect with insurance or payment, which is really nice. Never had an additional bill after seeing them.
This location seems understaffed for the volume they see some days. Walk ins should be expected at a lab work place like this and the amount of appointments they schedule in a short amount of time is insane… One morning I tried to do a walk in and waited 90 minutes and still couldn’t be seen. The employee was apologetic and told me they just had a crazy amount of appointments scheduled that day and they have to prioritize those who are scheduled. That’s totally fair, but it seems wrong to allow that many people to schedule in such a small amount of time. It would be impossible to see them all on time.
Also, the tablet check in is easy for most, but the elderly patients or those who just aren’t tech savvy were struggling. This made it hard for the employees because they either had to go out and help them use it, or they tried to talk them through it from behind the counter. Quest should really staff an admin person or something so you have an option where you can talk to a real person OR use the tablet. People in the waiting room were helping those who couldn’t figure out the tablet, which is great they were willing to do that, but isn’t a good reflection on the business.
