Medical Labs in Manhattan Beach, CA

“I’ve been coming to this lab for years and always schedule my blood draw right after my annual doctor’s visit, usually about a month in advance. Most visits have almost no wait, just a few minutes after checking in on my phone. Yesterday took a little longer, around 10 minutes, mostly because people kept knocking on the door asking how to check in, even though there are clear instructions in the emails, texts, and two check-in machines right by the entrance.

The phlebotomists I’ve had have always been super friendly and efficient. I always drink a lot of water before my appointment to make things easier, and I’ve found that letting the phlebotomist know what needle works best for me helps a lot. If you have small veins, definitely ask for the smaller needle.

Also, compared to sitting in a plain waiting room with nothing but chairs and other patients, I really appreciate that this LabCorp is located inside a Walgreens. I can browse or grab a few things before or after my appointment, which makes the whole experience way more pleasant.”

“This is the very best blood draw station I've ever used. I have very small veins and it is very difficult to draw my blood. These people are great. Ruth is so good, I don't know how she does it. Never misses and no pain or discomfort. They are just the best. The longest I've had to wait, maybe 5 minutes. Absolutely the best!!!”
