Medtexx Phlebotomy

Phlebotomy refers to what a "phlebotomist" does; venipunture. A person that would draw your blood would be called a phlebotomist. Like when you go to the Red Cross Blood Drive to donate blood, that person that draws your blood is a phlebotomist who went to a phlebotomy training (usually several weeks at a tech school).

Phlebotomy can be learned at special schools, or on the job, or sometimes in weekend seminars if enough information can be crammed into one day. I don't know about you, but I would feel a little nervous about the idea of a phlebotomist putting a needle up to my veins who had only been through a "weekend training". There is one company out there that claims to give weekend training seminars. I tried to see if it was a joke by signing up for it...Medtexx took my m.oney but never even gave me a training.
