I have a terrible time getting my blood taken but have to do it fairly regularly due to my thyroid being under active. I've been many places hoping to find someone who won't use me as a pin-cushion and I have found that person/place!
Lana, an employee who works in the outpatient lab in the cancer center building has been so wonderful. She knows me by name, asks about my son, (she drew the blood for all of my pregnancy tests), and always gets a vein on the first stick. If I need blood taken, I call to see if she's working. If she isn't, I wait until she is.
I used to have terrible anxiety about getting my blood taken and would almost pass out before they even touched me because of it. Now, I have confidence that she'll get the blood needed the first time and I'm so much more relaxed. I don't put it off for weeks/months, it's just wonderful. Thank you Lana and Franklin Square for employing people like her!
