I just had to take a minute and thank Asia for being so wonderful & kind…read more I am not an easy stick when in comes to blood draws. It's usually very painful for me , tiny veins, rolling veins, and it's usually 3 sticks and they end up taking blood from the back of my hand which hurts the most. Asia took her time, looked around, and got my blood draw in the first go. Also, practically painless! I told her I wish I could request her for the rest of forever for my blood work :)

I am not a fan of bloodwork. On July 14th I showed up to the new Labcorp location on Shoney and had…read moreto do around 30 vials---which was terrifying as someone who faints and can't stand needles. Thankfully, I had the best staff (Asya) who was very aware before I even said anything about my anxiety surrounding the labs. She picked up on it from my non verbals and got a recliner in there to help me feel more comfortable and alcohol swabs to assist with not passing out. She was very nice and she made it in right away. No poking around my arm which I really appreciated. She made something I was freaking out about for weeks a painless and anxiety free interaction. I hope if I have to go back I get her again.

I called to this lab and specifically asked if they did the test I was ordered to and they said…read moreyes. When I went the day after they told me they don't do that test, so I wasted my time and I had to book an appointment somewhere else. This test was time specific, so I had to do it that specific day, their misinformation ruined the integrity of that study. I don't recommend this place at all.

She said she call would call in meds for nausea. The meds were never called in. I ended up in the ER in the middle of the night. They were able to give me fluids and benedryl and nausea meds. None of which required a DEA license. I will be filing a complaint with my insurance company.

I really like this lab! I've used it numerous times! Their online booking is easy and they are…read moreprompt with text reminders and their system allows you to upload your drivers license, insurance card, and lab orders via text message. They send appointment reminders the day prior and one hour prior to your appointment. Their online system allows easy cancellations. When you arrive you check in via text link. The wait is never long and the technicians are friendly, efficient, and draw your blood correctly and painlessly! Their appointment timeslots are every twenty minutes beginning at 6:00 AM with the last appointment at 4:40 PM. The interior is clean and the entire process is fairly touchless, except for touching your palm on some type of palm reading device. You enter at the northeast corner of the building under a green awning that shares a space with a hospital affiliated fitness center and has a lovely pond with a fountain that people are always walking around for exercise. I've never had to wait very long once I'm checked in. I've noticed the 6:00 AM timeslot is the fastest one in terms of getting in and out efficiently. Today I waited about 20 minutes to get called to the back for my blood drawing. This was for a 6:40 AM appointment and that's still not a bad wait. The restrooms are clean, the building is handicap accessible, and with the text check in there is no need to sign in at the indoor kiosk at the (typically vacant) interior receptionist desk. If you enter from Balch road and wind around through the parking lot you avoid the lengthy traffic light, east at the entrance to the Target shopping center. When you're done doing your fasting lab work, there's a Panera right there and you can order on the app, pick up your breakfast and get on with your day! Thanks Huntsville Hospital Madison Lab, I've endured plenty of crappy lab visits to Labcorp and a few less than desirable ones at various Quest locations and Huntsville Hospital is the flagship place for bloodwork!

I am thankful I had an appointment as there were many individuals that did not. This clinic takes appointments first and walk ins are worked in. It is early Monday morning and people are starting their day off disgruntled. I recommend coming here as it is stress free if you have an appointment.
