[QUOTE="Blackhawk, post: 173448, member: 16042"] I agree about Defy medical's name, it is extremely unfortunate and does not lend credibility when dealing with other doctors and medical organizations. As much as we all would like to be accepted, there does exist strong prejudice against us taking T from the major medical community. Re: labcorp, First consider what the phlebotomists are dealing with all day every day... mostly scared, grumpy patients. I've observed people in the waiting rooms and there is almost always someone close to tears for fear of being stuck, someone complaining to the staff about it being the staffer's fault that they didn't bring their lab order etc etc. I've found that a few kind words with my phlebotomist with maybe a reference to how busy they all seem today or just asking how things are going today, while not getting spun up myself in any way to create more stress, seemingly allows them to let their guard down just a bit. Hello, how are you, please and thank you go a long way to easing their stress while I am in the hot seat. [/QUOTE]
