Lab recs to get blood drawn for LO's

DD's pedi wanted her to get blood drawn for a lead test so she gave me a list of labs and the paperwork.  any recs for places to do this the least painful way for DD?  The nurse recommended Hasbro, but I figured I'd get first hand accounts.

TIA!

  • I was going to say Hasbro since they specialize in kids.  When M needed bloodwork done I took her to the CT Children's Hospital for that reason.  I've never been to Hasbro though, so others might have a different opinion

  • Quest Diagnostics in Randall Square is good. 

    there is also a Fatima Lab in the Atwood Pedi office in Johnston

  • We went to the East Side Clinical Lab and they were very sweet with Cassidy.  I think there are multiple locations.  She still screamed, but I don't think there's really a way to avoid that...
  • We did DS's allergy blood test right at Hasbro.  His allergist is there so it was easy and they were amazingly good with him.  We had taken him to a lab in that medical bldg outside of the Warwick Mall when he was 15 months and I would NOT recommend them.
  • we also went to East Side Clinical and they are everywhere. it is all they do and they are very sweet with the LO's. i dont think you can really avoid the trauma but it doesnt last long....
