Then she put up a 'stepping away from the desk momentarily' sign and I left after another fifteen minutes of her not reappearing. Only one person got called in from the waiting room/hallway overflow during that time. Pretty pathetic display. And I still have an arm that suddenly went numb and cold 12 hours ago. Probably could have used some professional help with that. Unfortunately for me - professionalism doesn't seem to have much place in this clinic.

The sign behind her indicated it should be held 3-5 minutes. After a few seconds, she brought me in to have the ecg done. She told me to take everything off from the waist up, and gave me a paper sheet to cover myself, and left the room. Blood from my arm began squirting everywhere. I tried using the sheet to stop the bleeding. She came back in and saw what was happening, and tried to help clean up the blood on me. I said to her "I guess you didn't give me enough time to put pressure on it." I think she needs to have more training, as this was totally unacceptable. Patsy Losignore

Had to get blood work done so as per the websites request to make things go quicker, I uploaded my…read morerequisition and 'checked in' online. This allows you to wait at home until closer to your time so you aren't crowding a waiting room. Wait time was 60 minutes so I waited 40 and made my way down only to be told once I got there that the check in doesn't work. So I had to wait in line for another 55 minutes. If you know it doesn't work then maybe take it off the website ‍. And then when I let the staff know I checked in before they told me it doesn't work the response I got was 'the check in doesn't work so if it's a problem come another day' which is sound advice for someone who doesn't have a full time job that they had to take time off of to come here.. 55 minutes later staff comes out with my uploaded form from their website only to be told they can't take it like that because the website seems to change it when they printed it. Luckily I was able to forward the email from my doctor directly to them otherwise I would have wasted over two hours of my day and half a days pay. They really should have one day dedicated walking and the rest of the week done by appointment. But to clarify, the staff were friendly, clearly frustrated with how busy it was but they were nice. And the service was as expected. I got the blood drawn. My issue is that the mother company tries to be online with checking in and uploading requisitions but there seems to be a lack of communication and organization when the online communicates with the actual centre. I did not need to waste over two hours of my day.

When going for the test that are required it can be very scary but they always have a way of making sure you are reassured . My technician's name is Shani shamili and I have had her pretty much for every time I've been there which has been many times and she is absolutely amazing . I look forward to going to my appointments as she makes the experience so much more comforting and is a very calming soul .

I've never been to this location before and I thought all locations are standardized, and this one is closer. It's inside the Shoppers Drug Mart therefore not as big as other locations, since I'm not familiar with its setting, I hesitated a bit when I get there, but the front reception kept asking me to wait that it won't be long ... However, the nurse who took my blood test poked into my vein so painfully, that my arm got bruised even after a few days later. Don't know what went wrong, I thought Dynacare is a big company and their staff should be well-trained and proficient, very disappointed with the service provided

In the last few months (unfortunately) I've had to to several tests and can say I've got to know the staff more than the average Joe.

And this is what makes me happy here, they're not rushing. I've found out the best time to go is 4-5pm as most people try to go early in the morning as some tests require fasting.
