Had to have some blood work done and went to this Labcorp because they were open on Saturday and…read morenot too far off my activity path for the day. This office is the smallest one I've been to for them. It's seating capacity is less than 10, which left a few standing as they either waited for the intake folks to call them or to see the technician. Once I was called for the intake, I began sensing I was in a health office unlike any I had ever entered! Why? They are by far the nicest medical profession people I have ever encountered in the most genuine of ways! While waiting for the technician, I watched as they explained to one person why they couldn't do their Covid test, but provided them a non-Labcorp site that would and gave them directions, all without being asked! The thought of the specialness of my experience was ultimately confirmed when I had me blood taken and the technician was just as nice as all of the others! Now there are likely many teams that work there and they may not all be up to this standard, but my hat goes off to team 4 for a great medical experience!

I was telling her how I'm in the process of studying to be a phlebotomist myself and she gave me great information of what I needed to do to get started in my new career. And I do appreciate her advice to stay focused and positive. And I can actually do this cause I explain to her that I am nervous about this whole situation. But speaking to her gave me the confidence that I can do this. During the process she informed me that I was dehydrated and she had to try my other arm which actually worked. She was very patient with me and very informative. Thank you for making my Saturday morning great.

The staff were attentive and genuinely concerned for my well-being when I started showing signs of passing out. They gave me ice packs, water, and had me sit for as long as I needed.

They expect patients to know there protocols with no updated directions. Even with an appointment, expect to wait two hours or more after that time for a urine sample. If getting blood work, expect to get abused and bruised by those who should not be working with humans! Absolutely horrible!!!

**Ladies, You Have Options!**…read more I want to take a moment to share my experience with **Richmond Vascular Center**. They are truly one of the best in RVA! I recently had the **Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE)** procedure, and from the ladies at the front desk to the nurses and medical team, everyone was professional, caring, and supportive. **Dr. Brian Strife** took the time to explain the procedure and answer my questions so I could understand what to expect. After praying about my decision, I felt peace about moving forward. Ladies, if you are dealing with **fibroids and heavy menstrual cycles**, please know that you may have options. Ask questions, learn about the treatments available to you, and talk with a qualified medical professional about what is right for your situation. I'm looking forward to this new chapter--**living free from fibroids!** #FibroidAwareness #UFE #WomensHealth #RichmondVA #RVA #NewChapter #FaithOverFear

I had the UFE (uterine fibroid embolization) procedure on July 30, 2021 so I've given myself enough…read moretime to leave a well informed review. I've been struggling with the horrible symptoms of having fibroids for a few years and was in desperate need of some relief. The constant bleeding and painful cramps was taking a toll on my emotional and mental state. I went to a local OBGYN and had an ultrasound to evaluate how bad my fibroids were and to find out if there was any kind of treatment. They immediately encouraged a full hysterectomy due to my age being over 40 and not wanting to birth more children. I asked if there were any alternatives to losing my uterus, in which I was not ready to part with yet and they told me that was my only option. I was very hesitant and they were ready to schedule the surgery. I decided to put the hysterectomy on hold until I did my own research. the doctor was too excited about taking my uterus and it made me super uncomfortable. During my search, I stumble across Richmond Vascular Center. There were no reviews so I was going in blind. i read up on the UFE procedure and saw that I could keep my uterus so I scheduled an appointment immediately! My first appointment with them was very reassuring as it confirmed my hesitancy with the OBGYN office. I indeed had options and the hysterectomy didn't have to happen if I didn't want it. I'm so glad I trusted myself!! The staff was very kind and I met with Dr. McLaurin and he said that he would be the one to perform my procedure. He was very warm and kind. He explained everything in great detail and even mentioned that it's not 100% effective but it does have an 85-90% effective rate so I was willing to take the risk. They did and ultrasound of my wrist to check my veins to make sure I was a candidate or they would have to go through my groin instead to perform the procedure. He said they would insert a catheter in my wrist and inject these beads that would stop the fibroids from growing. I was a candidate for the wrist and that made me happy. They scheduled me to return and prescribed some meds that I needed before returning and after. Procedure day was smooth. Dr. Mclaurin asked what music I wanted to listen to during the procedure and I said "Sade". He replied, "great choice!" They started with the sedation and got started right away. I didn't feel anything during and the rest was history. They wheeled me back to recovery where the discomfort started after they reversed the sedation. Whew! The pain kicked in just as described and they explained how long it would last. They were upfront and on point with everything. I went home that day and started the recovery process. The first couple of days were rough and honestly I'd do it all over again for the results I'm having now that I'm post 5 months; almost 6. I no longer bleed or cramp and I can feel that my fibroids are shrinking. They helped me so much and I'm so glad I took a chance on this office. Anyone I know who suffers with fibroid issues I have recommend they come see why I'm so happy. Dr. Mclaurin gave me my life back and I'm so grateful for him and the staff!
