I am not going to lie...My experience at this particular Wellspan was absolutely terrible!!! I had to go in to take a drug screen test for my job, and mind you I live an hour away...I was in a rush because by the time I got off work from my previous job, it was about an hour and a half before this Wellspan closed. I arrived there with about 25 minutes left before closing time. So it wasnt like I was walking in while lights were being shut off or doors were being locked. When I went up to the receptionist desk, the lady working (wish I could remember her name), gave me this look of disgust and rudely asked me what I was there for. I held back my thoughts and told her what I needed done. She then told me do this and that, have a seat. Well, if anyone has ever taken a drug screen, you know how you have to hold going to the bathroom for a while. Well, nobody was calling my name, it started to get later and later, 30 minutes pass, for that 30 minutes there was no nurse or anyone really in sight. So finally I broke down and ran past where I guess youre not supposed to go, and found a nurse. I told her my problem and how I couldnt hold it, and we went ahead and did it right away. BUT, that wasnt the worst of it. While I was in the waiting room, this elderly lady comes in pushing another elderly woman in a wheelchair. When they first walked in, I made a point to look over at the receptionist, to see what kind of a look she was going to give them...I KID YOU NOT...this receptionist bent down below her desk and was hiding. HIDING from two very sweet looking elderly ladies!!! I couldnt believe myself!!! She then sighed EXTREMELY loud, and said what do you need. It was crazy! I have never seen an adult act so damn childish in my life! I mean, yeah they were about to close, and yeah it does suck when you have to work past normal hours, but come on. UN-PRO-FESSION-AL!!! Never going back to that place again. I was embarrassed for them. Terrible service!!!
