“Love this place! Staff is super welcoming and kind. I only go to this location and have always enjoyed my experience. Well I wouldn’t say enjoy because who likes getting their blood drawn lol, but the staff has always been super kind to me! I’m such a big baby when it comes to needles and I always freak out every time I have to get my blood drawn, but the staff are so understanding and they do everything in their power to make me feel comfortable. One time they even had me sing a song? and bonus, each time I go, they let me pick out the color of my bandage. Overall I love this place, super professional, kind, and understanding staff! It’s the only place I’ll ever go to when I need to get my blood drawn!”

717 A Ave NE #202, Cedar Rapids“I typically have very bad experiences getting my blood drawn, as I am extremely prone to fainting/almost fainting and feeling very ill. I got my blood drawn here and was seen right away when I walked in. My phlebotomist was very nice--I think her name was Linda? The first attempt didn't work and I almost fainted. She got me water, ice, paper towels, a fan, had me lay down, and was very kind. She was sweet and sympathetic. I appreciated that a lot. Before I left, she was able to take blood from my hand and counseled me to do that in the future since I tolerate it better. I had a much better experience here than at a different company/lab I went to previously.”
