Original feedback for

Riverside Clinic Ipswich (North East Essex and Suffolk Pathology Services)


As I work mornings this is great!

I work mornings which makes having my regular blood tests difficult as the phlebotomist only has morning appointments (and I know the blood collection van has set times to pick up samples). The receptionist advised me that I could attend the Riverside Clinic which is near to my workplace. The service was slick, professional and their opening hours were very good. The receptionist was pleasant and the Phlebotomist hit the spot first time, a bonus as I haven't got easy veins to locate!
