"This place is unsanitary and does not follow protocol. The lab tech... was aggressively flicking his veins and when I told her I wanted to go to a different lab she rushed back to his first arm- tied it so tight his skin folded over and tried to rush to get a needle in BEFORE even finding a vein."
