Is the collection the same quality as a hospital or clinic draw?
Yes. Every Speedy Sticks phlebotomist is certified (ASCP, AMT, or NHA) and follows the same standardized venipuncture protocols used at any patient service center. Tubes are labeled at bedside, chain-of-custody is documented from first stick, and specimens are routed to your reference lab per their handling requirements — nothing changes except where the draw happens.
