I used Genova Diagnostics for a test that requires frozen saliva samples to be shipped overnight to…read moremaintain specimen integrity. I followed the instructions and dropped my completed samples at a FedEx in the morning on 12/23, but the package wasn't picked up until 12/24 and didn't arrive until 12/27--five days later. Because of this, I was understandably concerned that the samples might no longer be valid. I contacted Genova on 12/27 to ask whether the samples passed their stability / integrity check and whether I would still be charged if the results weren't usable due to the shipping delay. They did not respond until 12/30, and said only to call them. I responded the same day, explaining that I was traveling and unable to call, and asked if they could please provide the information in writing. Since then, I have not received any further response or clarification. This has been frustrating because the test instructions emphasize the importance of overnight shipping and timely handling, yet when I tried to address a delay that was outside my control, the company provided minimal communication and no written follow-up. At a minimum, I expected timely confirmation about whether my sample was usable and whether I would be billed for an invalid test. Based on my experience, I would advise others to exercise caution when dealing with Genova, and I hope Genova improves both their communication and their process for handling time-sensitive specimen issues.

And then another Christy took me back to draw my blood. I have passed out several times while giving blood before and she took extra care in getting me set up in a recliner and took the time to really study my veins to make sure she got the best one. And then she talked to me the entire time (I had a pretty good amount that needed to be drawn) and it went great!! I had my blood drawn at Quest a couple of months ago, and it was a complete different experience there! I even left with blood on my clothes after there. Will never go back to Quest. Thanks Christy and Christy!! From Kriste :)

I was there for a urine drug test, and at that point I was on the verge of wetting myself because I had drank a bottle of water prior to arriving. 40ish minutes into my wait I inquired on how long it would be and said I really had to go, and I was told "you have to hold it because our only bathrooms are in the back." Wow, they don't even have public restrooms, which is absurd to me. The woman who helped me with my drug test was friendly enough. I've never had to wait this long for a drug test at any other lab facilities, even as a walk in. Avoid this location if you can.

Everything was fine at Quest! I arrived early, appointment…read morewas scheduled for 8am, and I was called in at 7:45. The waiting area had a place to log in or scan your paper work. No need for a receptionist. Waiting room was fine, nothing fancy but clean. Lobotomist lady was super nice and friendly. I had 13 different tests done and I started to receive some of the results in less than 24 hours. Still waiting for 4 more tests which I am sure will arrive shortly. The room I was admitted in was clean as well and I was out of there in less than 15 minutes. The website is easy to navigate, just read and follow the instructions. I found out about Quest via Fullscript after my nutritionist requested the 13 different blood work needed I was scheduled to go to a different quest lab but received an email a few days prior to my appointment to let me know that particular location was closed, and I needed to go to 2 Doctors place in Asheville. I could not reach Quest but contacted Fullscript and they helped me reschedule for the same day and time at the other location.

It's great going in to get your blood drawn and you know ahead of time it won't be too bad. And it's even better that the process was fast once you're checked in. That's always a plus when you're dealing with medical appointments as we all know!! The girls behind the counter at Mission Lab Express are skilled at taking blood. The fact that it never hurts when they do it is definitely a testament to their expertise. Having a painless experience during blood work can make a big difference in how comfortable you feel throughout the process. Mission Lab Express provides efficient and skilled service when it comes to blood work! I go at least once a year here. Keep up the good work guys!!

I brought my 73-year-old mother here after two full weeks of struggling with an upper respiratory…read moreinfection -- coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath, and fatigue. She has leukemia and asthma, and her husband just had a stroke earlier this week, so she's completely run down and only getting sicker. We made sure the staff knew all of this. After waiting about an hour and a half -- despite having an appointment online -- the PA simply listened to her lungs and ordered a chest X-ray. There was no further exam or effort to get a full picture of my mom's health. The visit was cursory at best; she spent no more than ten minutes with her total. She was diagnosed with bronchitis, and despite us explaining the shortness of breath and wheezing she's been having all week, the PA recommended steam showers, percussion therapy, and Mucinex -- and basically told her to "wait and see." Wait for what? An asthma attack from coughing so hard she ends up in the hospital? For it to turn into pneumonia? For her to become so fatigued and run down she can't care for herself? I understand being cautious with antibiotics and steroids, but medicine isn't just about what shows up on an X-ray -- it's about treating the whole patient. My mom is immunocompromised, more susceptible to secondary infections, and unable to heal quickly. She's been sick for 14 days and is trying to care for herself while also managing her husband's recovery. She needed thoughtful, proactive care, not generic advice for someone young and healthy. And when a patient says, "I'm getting sicker, not better," what more do you need to hear to intervene? I left this visit feeling frustrated, scared, and deeply disappointed. We came here for real help, and it was a complete waste of time. I truly hope this clinic learns to look beyond textbook symptoms and listen to their patients -- especially those already fighting uphill battles with serious health conditions.
