Quest Diagnostics Employer Reviews

The pathologists were never too busy to review a difficult case with me. The cytology supervisor (s) communicated changes in procedure
in a timely manner. I never felt out of the loop. I loved the multihead scope session with the pathologist and my co-workers which helped me refine my diagnoses. The emphasis on excellent patient care was obvious.

I learn more and more about my patients everyday the most enjoyable part about my job is getting to know my patients family and there concerns on what we could do to make there love ones lives even better.

My Work palce is challenging environment with good team work

I worked as an in office phlebotomist for Ouest Diagnostics where I was placed in a doctor's office. Began work at 8am and ended at 5pm. some days were very busy and others were very slow. I loved working in this setting! I learned how different an office setting was from a hospital setting! I believe it helped me strengthen my management skills due – more... to the fact I was the only IOP at this site! I never ran into anything that I would consider too difficult. I enjoyed meeting people and being a part of the office! – less

A typical day is opening up at 6:30 a.m. and make sure patients are in and out as quickly as I can. Ive learned everyone has a story. my boss and co-workers were more like family, we all went on family trips together and thats the enjoyable part. The hardest part of the job is getting attached to the weekly patients and they take sick

Relatively stable company with strong foothold in their respective market(s). Seemed to value its employees and offer chances to advance or move to other areas of the organization.

ON ALL THE YEARS THAT I WORKED THERE I HAD A GREAT TIME, TEAMWORK WAS ALWAYS A PLUS, BUT LACK OF MANAGEMENT AND POOR WORK ETHICS

good experience co worker are really nice

lab experience

management could be better

working experience is mixed. A typical day is a very busy night shift.
I learned not to trust everyone you work with. I also worked with some great staff members with excellent work ethics and concern for others.
I am not going to say anything about management.
The hardest part of the job is to work difficult nights without adequate staffing and schedule.
The – more... most enjoyable part of the job is to know that one has given service to those in need. – less

A typical day in my work place consist of approximately 30 blood draws per day. Properly check all insurance. Enter all labs per doctors orders. Make sure all labs are sent out per requierments.(Pour offs, frozens, cultures) I am the only Quest employee in my office. My management team is one of the best I have ever worked for. I love working with all – more... ages of patients in this office. The most enjoyable part of my job is knowing I am making a difference in each patients life I come in contact with. – less

Stress levels are moderate in the day-to-day work environment, but high motivation leads to great learning opportunities. Working independently and with a team provides valuable support for ease of job duties. There is a lot to learn within Clinical Trials and this knowledge and skill can be applied in all areas of the healthcare industry.

I understand that patients are at the center of everything we do. Consistent delivery of Gold Standard care will ensure organizational growth and patient satisfaction.

Good company to work for, typical day sort my specimens and see what are the problems that either were omitted or names and demographics corrections, once this was done I will call the different
Doctors' offices to clarify either tests, kind of specimen or demographics, being conscientious of getting the proper question to the right answer, enter corrections – more... in the system, delivered to the department to handle as stats specimens to be processed promptly.
Once this was done, I will proceed to the adjoining office to do other functions, like unload slides from pap machines set them in order enter in the system and have them set for the different cytologists as also for some of the pathologists .
Filing of requisitions, slides, setting also boxes for outside storage. sometimes If needed I will work at the regular laboratory doing data entry, for specimens that came In the afternoon, or doing the second part of Data entry which is to finish entering names and demographics. I will also send specimens that had no names or
wrong names to the Doctors' office to be corrected being very observant that they will go to the proper offices observing the OSHA rules.

Got along with all coworkers, trying to be helpful and amicable – less

A typical day working for Quest Diagnostics was rewarding in that you get the opportunity to assist providers with improving overall patient outcomes and gain a better understanding of what a provider daily workflow is like and the demands placed on them. I also had the opportunity to work with an excellent team of sales reps and managers that support – more... our efforts in the field. The most enjoyable part of the job was providing our development team with feedback and then later seeing the enhancements incorporated into our product. – less

not a fun place to work it is a business and is run as such. Business as usual, point blank.

This organization has a bad culture and poor diversity within the organization . It is the good ole boy's club and does not appreciate or respect innovation and growth.

It is a very hectic day . I learned a lot especially the different test ordering and the requirements of the test. The management are really great. They are not there all the time which is great no pressure at all from my supervisor . I work on my own as the representative to the other lab. MY CO-WORKERS are always great to me. The hardest part of the – more... job is the hours that I work which was not favorable to my family.
I enjoy processing the specimen in my own pace. – less

co-workers patients, superviors, its a great placee to work for.

This company has changed leadership at the top, but forgot to clean out the regional leadership. The leadership is very inappropriate, demeaning and there is little to no communication to employees.

There wasn't a thing I didn't enjoy about this place the employees were amazing. If I needed any help they were right there willingly and went above and beyond with teaching me and giving me information. My mentor was a great person. I still visit them occasionally to say hi. I learned more there then I had expected. Great place and the patients were – more... also great. The regulars were sad to learn I was only there temporarily. – less
