For people who don't have insurance, this company is a Godsend. Four tests that Quest would charge $525 Vista charges $88!
They are located next to Ace Hardware in the Belk Shopping Center. Give it a try next time you need blood work done. Me? I will never go back to Quest.

I never thought I would stand up for a LAB. But the Quest techs are GOOD.
I will say this. After a lifetime of watching daughter Helene be poked repeatedly to draw blood or get a line in. (She hates it, but even as a child she was very brave and patient) Quests techs earn the prize finding the right place with one stab and a warm attitude toward people who don't LIKE pokes (their aging moms.)
I THINK but don't know, that doctors have some kind of business arrangements with certain labs here. In Ohio I was not directed toward any certain Lab, but have been here by two doctors.
Don't know. Don't care. Do care that the many visits to Quest here in many locations have given the same results. You don't have to tell them to use a butterfly. They are the best vampires I have found.
Sweetie used them yesterday and Helene and I had our quarterly blood draws a couple of weeks ago. I am glad that another lab is equally good with the poking.
We have learned that if you don't want to wait, go about an hour after they open, which is about 8:00 and the big crowd has dissipated.
