Quest Diagnostics for Medical Tests – Bay Ridge 11209
My friend had to have some tests done at Quest Diagnostics in Bay Ridge – 7601 4th Avenue 718-833-2354. They wouldn’t let her make an appointment over the phone for the test for some reason. My friend read the reviews and said she wanted to go very early in the morning because the reviews said this place was crowded.
I woke up early on Saturday and we went to Quest before it opened. When the technician opened the door, we were the first ones in – there was no one else there for another 20 minutes. My friend showed the woman at the front desk what test she needed done. The woman told her she should have made an appointment. My friend explained that she tried to, but that the receptionist wouldn’t allow her to make an appointment. The technician called someone else and they called my friend in to start the test.
Quest was clean and comfortable. They have televisions, but I brought my computer to do some work. Many parents with small children came in – none were crying before or after. The technicians were professional, but no one was very friendly, personable or anything notable. It’s a testing center – they do their job and you get the test. The bathrooms were very clean. My friend found the testing experience there positive and she would use the testing center again. We recommend that you go at the start of the day because after we were there for two hours, the office was PACKED with people – it’s a large waiting room and people had to stand because it was so busy on a Saturday morning.
If you go and are allowed to have water, bring some (some testing requires you don’t bring water. Also bring some chapstick, the place was dry.
Hugs,
