The wait really depends on how many people are waiting in the lobby. Cool thing is their Tv shows a…read morepatient queue, so you can tell what time you arrived and shows public if your a walk-in or appointment. Because you'll get the look down by people who are waiting as well. Parking area is cramped due to medicentre next door as well. Staff is alright. Waiting room is quite open. People will always sit one chair space away from another depending how busy it is but that's normal since everyone has their own comfort zone. Booking appointments on phone or online is probably better, but if your lazy to do that just sit in the waiting room like the rest of us. Expect to wait 1-2hrs, again depends on the busy hour. Don't forget your health care card and requisition. And be sure to do the requirements of the requisition or you'll waste your time and need to restart a wait time.

I've been here several times over the past few years now, and here are my reasons why:…read more1) The location is the closest to where I've been living, for about 7 years now. Yes, I used to go to the closest lab to my doctor's office (anywhere in the Southside) but now I always go here. 2) The staff is personable and efficient. One of the biggest reasons why I go here is they never hurt me when poking me with a needle and never really look like they hate their job. This is important to me because I have a huge fear of needles and I'm always so scared and anxious getting my blood drawn, but they make me feel comfortable. The wait sometimes sucks, depending on what day and around what time of the day you come, even if you make an appointment. My last appointment was last Friday and I waited around 10-15mins over my appointed time. I didn't mind, the woman who was doing my work was pleasant. But just something to keep in mind.

I had a pleasant experience both times I visited. The nurse who took my blood the first time was…read morefriendly and extremely efficient. I made an appointment and showed up 5 minutes before the alloted time on a Friday morning. It was standing room (many walk-ins) only, yet it seemed a smooth operation. I was in and out in just over a half hour. I went back the following day (Saturday) 15 minutes before closing time to turn in the FIT test vial, and to provide the requisition for a specialized Vitamin D test I had failed to notice (and bring in) the day before, so a second (different but also nice) nurse took my blood this time. Her technique was a bit different and the needle she used appeared thicker and longer than one used by nurse the day before. This time the waiting area was empty and I was out the door in less than 10 minutes.

Went in to get annual blood tests and the worker asked when I last ate. I didn't remember exactly…read morewhen and gave a range. The worker kept demanding an exact time and tried dumping me onto someone else when I kept telling her I don't know exactly the time. You need to retrain the staff to learn to count. If I say 9-midnight, how hard is it to look at the clock and count? If the test wants 8hr fast and I'm past that, then just mark down 8+. Never got any "care" since the worker couldn't and/or refused to do basic math. I know that math is hard in Alberta.

I was quite impressed at how quickly I was in and out of my appointment. I had a requisition for…read moremultiple blood tests, urine and a ECG. I would have thought this might take an hour or more. I was basically in and out in about 30 mins. I would however recommend making an appointment as the walk in wait time ranged from 20-40 minutes. The place was clean, my technician was very nice and she was also efficient. I hate blood tests and she did it all pretty quick. And bonus, I did it bruise, so she did a great job. My only complaint was how few appointments there were. At most locations it was at least a 2 week wait. I must have gotten an appointment that was cancelled as my appointment was only a week away.
