Gamma-Dynacare Medical Laboratories

What a bad experience! I never experienced a more painful blood sample. One would think that someone who takes blood all day would be more competent. The technician decided that the pain was due to her hitting a nerve in my arm (my arm is still hurting 4 hours after my blood was taken). After admitting responsibility for her mistake, the technician decided to blame me — she told me the pain was because of the way I positioned my arm. I will not return!

This laboratory is conveniently located near where I live; I can pop by for blood work on my way to work. But, there are long line-​ups in the early morning.
Yesterday, I arrived around 9am and after I was given a number and had my papers reviewed, I sat down to wait. 15 minutes. My number was called but instead of heading directly inside to get my blood sample taken, they checked my papers again and again I was told to sit down and wait! I did a double-​wait! I waited ~7 additional meetings before being called in. This double wait is unnecessary and inefficient.
However, the ladies who work here are angels! They know how to take blood samples without scaring you or scarring you! They will talk to you and make you relax and tell you when to breathe in. There are other labs were the ladies taking the blood work are not this empathetic!
