I was able to choose a Labcorp location and schedule an appointment. Check in was easy, and I only needed to provide my name and DOB. They were able to locate my order in their system. They were already aware that my labs were paid for prior to the appointment. I had my labs done on a Wednesday, and I received my results by Saturday. Great experience.

I've been here twice, and I was so impressed with the way that this staff took great care of me. Juan is so helpful and good at what he does, and Dr.Godinez's explanation of symptoms and sincere help to answer all my medical concerns. I just had to leave a review for them that is awesome. I am in no hurry to return but if anything does happen, they will be my first call.
