Life Line Screening

I have received some stuff from Life Line for screenings. I just got screened about two months ago. I've had preventative screening done before and they were helpful. A lot of it is good to know where you're at as far as like cholesterol and the sonogram. I'm getting old enough to where now it's stuff to start thinking about. On the latest screening, there were a few technicians. When I first walked in there, I sat in a big area and when they called me, I went to the inner side of the room and then sat there for a little while, and then got called and then went in and laid on the table and they did the EKG and the sonogram and that other stuff. After that, I went and sat outside for a few minutes and then got called to do the blood. I didn't really have any questions but both of the technicians seemed like they knew what they were doing.

The results sort of told me what I wanted to. It would be interesting to know a little bit more. One of the two issues that I've got is the triglycerides and the other one is my cholesterol is a little bit high. I'm happy with what they gave me. They told me everything looked okay except for those two things. My experience with Life Line is good. It did what I expected it to do. If they could lower the price, that'd be wonderful but I think the price is fair.

I've been going to Life Line Screening for several years. Their screening process is good. I like the way they do their thing. Their techs were excellent. They know how to talk to people. Overall, it's been a good experience for me. They were the one that found my carotid artery blockage several years ago. I've been monitoring it ever since then. Last couple of years, it hadn't gotten any worse because my heart doctors have been monitoring it, too. I'm well-pleased with all of Life Line's services. I'd recommend it to anybody. It's well worth the money.

Life Line's screening process was great. They find problems that others don't. This was my third screening with them. The quality of the results that I got was very good. I asked for extra pictures my doctor needed and they were very helpful. I truly believe Life Line saves people's lives.

I've been using Life Line for many years. It always had convenient locations and I'm a firm believer in preventive medicine and was well aware early on of the benefits the screening process provides. I have always sent the results to my primary care physician. Most recently, as a direct result of concern about the plaque in my carotid arteries, I am going to consult with a vascular surgeon.

During the actual screening process, everything was on time. It was efficiently and quickly done all within the space of less than an hour. Everyone was pleasant and efficient and reassuring in the process. The only thing is that the price I was given consistently was $139 and yet I got a bill that was $18 more. That is the first time ever I received a charge for a physician's review of the results and I was very upset not at the amount, but I felt it was inappropriately handled. At no time and anything written as seen online was there ever a reference to a physician's charge. I'd recommend Life Line to friends, but I'd caution them about the sneaky last-minute charge that is not generally included in the charge that we were quoted.

I've been going to Life Line for 10 years. They're very prompt and professional. They tell me what I need to know. The cost is reasonable, too.

I've been to Life Line Screening twice already. The reason I went is to get sonograms done and make sure everything was flowing the way it's supposed to be. The technicians were very good. Me and my wife were in and out. It was a very smooth operation. There was no dilly-dallying around, which I appreciate. They knew what they were doing. They had it down to a T. I'm gonna take the results in and share them with my doctor so he knows. It's a bit of a relief knowing everything's working all right. As far as the cost, I used to go to a cardiologist and get some of those tests done and they charge a hell a lot more than Life Line does.

Life Line did a great job and we got the results in the mail and online and it was a very good experience. Everything went wonderfully. They didn't hurry up. They took their time to do everything. I was very happy with everything. I went there with my husband. I saw them do all the tests. There were five tests. Overall, we're very happy with Life Line. It's a very good place to go to. I've been there previous years and I think people should go there because the regular doctor's office doesn't do those tests.

Our doctor referred us to Life Line Screening. I am so grateful because they caught something that was life-threatening. It was a blocked artery in my neck and nobody would have known. I had a light stroke two years ago, but they never pursued it. We tell everybody to do Life's screening because it checks for real things that are good and it costs a little money, but it's well worth it. Getting to a regular doctor and getting taken care of is different but at least we know that we have it. I would recommend Life Line at the highest number.

I'm not getting any younger and I figured a preventative screening would be a good thing to do and it was great. My experience with the Life Line Screening technicians was good. They explained to me what they were doing. I had the carotid artery and aortic screening. The quality of the results is good. I'm heading home from the doctor's now because of that. I have blockage in my arteries. I got to have some stents put in. I don't feel like there's anything wrong with me, but there is. I'd tell my family and friends to go to Life Line.

I went to Life Line knowing what to expect and I thought they were very personable and very professional and careful in what they were doing. So, I'm inclined to go back. In fact, I ran into a doctor friend of mine and asked her, "Do you approve of Life Line?" She said, "I do it every year." So, that's another good reason to do it. One time, they diagnosed a blockage in my carotid artery, which led to surgery. I was happy I'd done it, and that was the reason I went this year.

I've been going to my doctor and I said my cholesterol was high. And then, when I went to Life Line, it was at a normal scale. And then, we went to the doctor, it was high. When I went to Life Line, it was within range. I don't know why that happened. I wish I got another one done on me. I forgot to get my cholesterol tested, but I had my testosterone tested and it was way low.

As far as the screening results, the doctor says they look good. I take a baby aspirin and fish oil every night. I never had any problem with the screening techs from Clarksville or Nashville. They were really nice people. They're not like doctors who are grumpy all the time. They're more like nurses that are polite and wants to help. I like Life Line. Other people say, "Well, you got to pay for that. Your insurance don't cover." I said, "It's not that high." Also, I know a lot of people that get it done. I go in there and see my friends and people I haven't seen in 30 years and talk to them while I'm waiting.

Getting a preventative screening done seemed like a good idea. I had it done a number of years ago and thought it was time to do it again just for the heck of it and to reaffirm the bad news. I've got diabetes and high blood pressure. It wasn't over-the-top expensive. It felt like I got a good bang for my buck. The Life Line screening techs were very good, very personable, and friendly. They got me in and got me out quick. There was not a lot of waiting at all. So, I appreciated that. They did a screening for heart disease. It didn't require blood work. They did an ultrasound for the arteries in the neck. They checked the carotid and various things. Everything looked good as far as the results. So, I was very pleased with that. There was no bad news to report.

I was about to have surgery and I had been having some dizzy spells where I feel the blood rush to my head. It really rushed to the right side of my body up into my ear. So, I figured I would do a screening before surgery so the doctor wouldn't have to deal with it. If it was a problem, we would know beforehand. The techs at Life Line were professional and they were polite and they did their job quickly and very well.

They gave me my test results and they showed it on a bar graph. The right carotid artery on my right side is at their level serious, and I am seeing my doctor about it on Friday. Overall, Life Line did what I thought they were gonna do and they did it in a professional manner and it didn't take too long. So, I was very happy. I'm from Manhattan and I scheduled it really late. So, I understand. I had to drive to Topeka, which was about an hour. Life Line could come to Manhattan more often or go to Topeka more often. They could have the screenings come into the area.

I have preventative screening done through Life Line every six months. The latest time, it was quick and good. When I got there, there weren't that many people and the techs were very cautious in trying to help me. I did about five screening, and my heart was one of them. There was also a test for osteoporosis. I didn't like the results, but it was accurate.

Life Line's screening technicians all seem very professional. It was very cold in there because it was winter, but the people that I dealt with were very nice and polite. There were a lot of people there. I expected more people doing the screening. We had to wait a little while, but that was because there were only three people for the three different stations. I waited an hour or so. It wasn't horrible. You go to a doctor's office and sit there for an hour waiting for a five-minute appointment. As far as the screenings, I went with the whole kit and caboodle. I'm not a person that likes to have anything done to them because I don't like people seeing different parts of me. I'm a very private person. The techs just did what they needed to do and I felt very comfortable with all of them.

I was treated well at Life Line. There were a lot of people, but the screening went fast. Everything went smoothly. The results was good. I gave all that stuff to my doctor. He didn't say anything about it, so I guess it's all right.

My grandmother received a notice to get a screening done because she was having some health issues. So while I was taking her, just as a precaution, I started getting screenings myself. The screening techs at Life Line were nice and professional. They were knowledgeable and very efficient with the time and my schedule.

The results were high quality. I always have it reviewed by my primary care physician anyway. So, it is a second opinion for me. The cost was reasonable. I don't agree with how they offered this payment plan option. It wasn't very clear how that works. So, I'm still in the process of trying to review the cost because I ended up getting a payment plan and I got to see the length of the cost and how it's charged. Overall, I think Life Line is a good service for the community. More people should look into it. The cost may deter a lot of people. So, if they can do it at a more reasonable cost for the inner city, that would be helpful.

I've been to Life Line a couple of times and hadn't been in a couple of years and I figured I would go. Their technicians were excellent. Timing was good. I was there early. The quality of my results from last time is leading to further tests that I'm going to do on Tuesday at the hospital. They gave me a heads-up that I got an issue starting. The only thing is Life Line used to do it up in Rutland, which is closer to my home. Rutland is only a half an hour or less from my house. I can understand that the situation of having a large space like that has changed in Rutland. So, they went down to Springfield and that's fine. It's only an hour away from me.

The Life Line technicians were very professional. The results from the screening were accurate. I have a regular doctor I see for my blood work and what that showed was accurate. I have a carotid problem that I thought I had and it confirmed I did have that. Overall, it was a good experience.

My experience with Life Line was very good. I had a stroke in January of last year and the left side of my carotid artery is blocked. So, I decided that I want to know the condition of the right side. Life Line offered that and three other screenings for $170. So, to me, it was worth it because if the right side plugs, I'm history. So, I want to have one of those screenings done every year. The doctors got me on a blood thinner and I lost 63 pounds. So, it's all good. The right side is flowing freely and that was good news. So, it was money well spent. The Life Line tech explained everything and he was really good.

I had the carotid artery test, and the ultrasound, and then they did one with the check for clots in my stomach. They did one where they hooked up blood pressure cuffs to my ankles and to my arms to test the blood flow. I've got the paperwork. They sent it in the mail, and then I've got an annual doctor's appointment coming up in April and I'm going to give that to my doctor.

My mother likes getting preventative screening done through Life Line and she ended up having to have open heart surgery. She had literature to provide the doctor. S, it was very helpful. I then utilized it. The techs are extremely knowledgeable. The screening results made me more informed.

My mom wanted me to get preventative screening done through Life Line. The screening process was quick. It was a little uncomfortable at first, but it was all right. The screening technicians were good. They told me what I needed to do and showed me what was going on. They did a good job.

The screening through Life Line seemed like a good deal, good health check and they were really thorough. Their screening techs were all very friendly and very professional and explained what the procedure was for. They did the screening for heart disease, and they did the blood work on me to check my thyroid. It was really thorough. They also did the test for kidney functions and liver function. Everything was covered. The results were very informative and to the point. I didn't have any difficulty understanding the test results at all. It’s explained thoroughly in the letter. The screening was definitely worth the price.

The Life Line techs were all fine. They were very professional, and everything was fine. There were four things that were covered in the screening. The quality of the results was good. I had a follow-up study that showed that one of the results that they thought was a little more concerning was not.

The Life Line screening service was good. We made our appointment. We kept our appointment, and our wait time was in line with what we expected. The techs were professional. They did what they needed to do. They did my abdominal and peripheral artery checks. They also checked my carotid artery. The results came about two weeks later. I probably want to investigate the idea of the abdominal artery. I want to see if it's going to be a problem or not down the road. I will keep an eye on it and get another opinion.

The screening with Life Line was quick. The techs were on time. So, that went well. I like to be on time, and I like where I go to be on time as well. The latest time, I was out of there in 15 minutes, which was good. I had five tests done. They had a package of five. The quality of the results was good. It was the same as we did last year. So, they were accurate. The screening was a little bit pricey. Part of it was, they put in 18 bucks to have one of their doctors review it, which I don't need because I send the results to my doctors.

The preventative screening with Life Line is an accessible screening all around, and I have one done about every five years. Their screening techs were all very good. I would recommend Life Line.

My wife and I ended up signing up for Life Line. We were in a community center for the screening. It wasn't a permanent place. We got there, and we were in and out in about an hour. The only problem I have is I know I have AFib. That's something my cardiologist and general practitioner already diagnosed. The result from Life Line shows I don't have AFib, but it showed I had an irregular heartbeat. So, I don't know how accurate that was. I wasn't too happy about that end of it. I just got the paperwork and the printouts, and everything else looked good. It was within the parameters. I'm going to bring the charts to my cardiologist on our next visit and show him that and see what he says.

I've been doing preventive screening through Life Line for about every five years. Everything was fine in my most recent experience. It went smoothly. Everybody was very nice and helpful.

I've used Life Line before. I just used them again for a quick check on my health. Their technicians were all pleasant. They caught an aneurysm. In fact, I went to the doctor today. So, I got to see a cardiologist.

I'd had trouble with Life Line Screening’s service. My experience has not been a good one. I would like to have the results sent to me, and I haven't got them yet. They made it more complicated to say that they're not issuing an actual report like they've done before. I don't know about a lot of other elderly people, but we're not that really good at dealing with the computer. I never got around to getting the results. They said, “If you want the results, we're gonna charge you another $15.” I thought, “Well, that's stupid.” They spend probably $15 on a brochure that they use every year that's very colorful and bright. That's probably what's costing them so much money, but they don't have to be that sophisticated. I just want them to give me the results of the test without going through such a dynamic piece that they sent previously. In this case, I got no results. So, I don't even know what the results were for the test.

I've been trying to reach them. Every time you call into these places, you're dealing with a robot. It's not convenient. This is the first year that they've done this, and it's aggravated me quite a bit about their service this time. Their people and everything were fine but the fact that they can't even send you a two-page result of your findings without charging $15 to do it in addition to what they charge you, I'm not sure I'll do it again. I'm really frustrated with them.

I've been getting preventative screening for years. I get it once a year because it's a secondary way of checking out tests that aren't routinely done by my physician. It's like a backup to my normal routine physicals. The technicians have been fine. It’s sometimes not as organized as it could be. But at this most recent time, their staffing could have been a little bit more in order to take care of the number of people sitting around and waiting to get the test done. I've usually gone where they had quite a bit of space to work with. With this last one, they've had very limited space to do the testing, although the personnel themselves did a good job.

The stuff Life Line offered looked thorough and it looked like it's a good and very affordable package. I did six tests and the quality of the results appears to be good. Overall, it was a good experience. The screening is a good thing to get done.

Due to my age group, I thought I should be screened. I found Life Line online. Everything went fine with the screening. It was on time. It was quick. As far as the results, it's up in the air because I did follow up with my physician, and I'm not satisfied with what he said. He sent me for another scan for an aneurysm and the results don't agree. It's not that Life Line's results are wrong. It's just that the results of the screening that he sent me for as a result of Life Line's screening were different. I still think that Life Line's is accurate. My physician says that he doesn't trust the screening results. He said, “They're just not as accurate as some of the tests done in a regular lab.” I'm not so sure about that because I worked in the medical field for 35 years and I've got a lot of experience in medicine, and I'm about to change doctors.

My sister suggested I get a preventative screening done. She did it and I did it with her. We went to the Life Line here in Bennington. It was affordable and it was okay. The tech didn't have much of a personality. He never said a word other than, "Turn your head, blah, blah, blah." It's not that I'm a big fan of that, but sometimes just a little bit goes a long way.

20 years ago, I had a preventive screening done through Life Line, and I kept getting information in the mail and my husband said, "I think we need to do that." We did the test for the carotid artery, for an aneurysm, and then, we had blood work done. The techs were good. They found that my husband had a blocked carotid artery. So, we followed up on that.

I've used Life Line before. I used them again this time and they checked some levels. The tests took somewhere around an hour or less. Their techs were fine. There was good communication and it went well. The results I got have been useful and helpful. It revealed some issues I need to work on. Doing the screening tests through Life Line is a worthwhile thing to do for a person's health.

I always get a preventative screening done every other year or every year. Life Line Screening's techs were good. The only thing is I've been trying to collect my $25. I called them this morning. Nobody was answering the phone.

Five years ago, my husband got something in the mail from Life Line Screening and we went and had ourselves screened. And then, we got another flyer in the mail in the summer, and I took it to my doctor and asked him if it was nonsense and he said, "No." He explained to me that he was interested more in the carotid artery and the aneurysm. So, we had it done. The screening process took around 30 minutes, and the techs were great. I asked questions and they answered me. Life Line is reasonably priced.

I had done a Life Line screening several years ago and everything came out fine. I got a thing in the mail advertising one near me. I just said, "Well, I'll just go ahead and do it." So, I signed up and did it. I had a very good experience. In fact, they found out that both of my carotid arteries were severely blocked, and so they told me I needed to see my doctor, which I did. They confirmed it and I have now had an operation on my right carotid artery to clean it out. I feel like Life Line saved my life. I'd tell others it's well worth doing, especially the older you get.

After I had the screening through Life Line in September, I was notified that I had a carotid artery that was 60% plugged. So, I've been dealing with my doctor and they do not do surgery on it until it's 80% obstructed and they suggest that I take another one of the tests once a year. I'm a little ways away from one now. I had a stroke several years ago, and they had cleaned out the carotid artery in that stroke and the doctor told me to check on it periodically.

I received a promotional letter from Prudential Insurance company that I would be getting a super discount on using Life Line's facilities, so I did. The results I got are a good place to start.

Life Line Screening was great. The screening was very reasonably priced. Their techs were all wonderful. I had my carotid arteries looked at, the stomach, the legs, all the blood work, and the heart. The results were all the things I had thought that I needed to look out for. I'll be doing the screening again in a year.

Life Line Screening did a procedure for me not too long ago. It was something I thought that I should have and pass on to my physician. This latest time, Life Line called me and talked to me about the procedure that they had done and asked if I'd be interested in getting it done again because they saw some plaque buildup in my carotid artery. So, I went ahead with the procedure and I had the results. I have yet to see my physician. But when I do go in, I have that paperwork that I can pass on to him and then we can go from there with it. I think it's important that people do this and that it's a good preventive step in people's health. If they don't get it done and there is something seriously wrong, they could pay dearly for not doing anything about it. So, to me, the screening is a good thing.

My experience with Life Line Screening was good. I've had preventative screening done several times in the past and my carotid artery seemed to be getting more and more blocked. So, I wanted to check on it. I have done about six different things recently. The screening techs were very good. I took the results to my doctor and he is going to re-screen me and then take care of that one blockage if necessary. Life Line is a good service and I would recommend it.

I'm worried about my carotid arteries and some other stuff. I did screening tests through Life Line and my experience was okay. Their techs were very good. They could be a little bit friendlier and not so quick.

Life Line had the convenience. They were in town. They made it easy, so I was able to go. My wife and I both went. The screening was great. There were a few several different ones. The one girl spoke broken English. It was hard to understand her but she was confident. It's just communicating with her was a little bit tough. With the screening results, I'm paying more attention to my diet. Hopefully, in the future, the numbers will turn out well. The only thing that jogs my memory is that they said my waist was too big, but only by an inch. Overall, the screening was a worthwhile thing. I think more people ought to take advantage of it, but there is a significant cost involved. I recommend Life Line.

My wife passed away in February from a massive heart attack, and it was caused by a blockage in her aorta that nobody had ever seen. I saw an advertisement for Life Line that was gonna be at my local VFW here, and I thought I should do a screening. I believe if my wife would have had one of these tests, it probably would have saved her life.

Life Line did a great job and found some blockage in my left carotid. And later today, I'm going to have an MRA done. On Thursday, I have a consultation with a vascular surgeon for what the next steps are gonna be. The experience was good. They found something. The techs were very nice about doing everything and they told me everything they were gonna do before they did it.

I just had my Life Line screening done and it worked out fine. I paid them $177 because I had a blood test and another one. So, we're not due for another six months to a year. Life Line did a good job. Everything went according to schedule and what they were supposed to do. They sent me four pages by email. I gave it to my doctor, and he looked at it and agreed with it. So, everything went fine.

I want to get the carotid artery on the right side double-checked. They want to do some surgery possibly. I went to Life Line with enough notice and I want to get a second opinion before surgery. It was three weeks off, and then I said, "How soon can we get this report back to me?" They said, "We'll have to in 7 to 10 days." It was about 18 days before I got it in the mail, but they did four pages and it was a comprehensive response. So, I respect that and I'm not complaining. The surgery was called off, but if it happened, I don't know if the doctor would've had their second opinion before we went under the knife. So, if they say 7 to 14 days, they should not make it three weeks.

I went to Life Line Screening and they discovered things that were serious with me and my husband, too. From that point, every two years, I make an appointment and go to Life Line Screening because the last time was really serious. They discovered I had a blockage on the neck. It was the left vein on the left side of my neck. The lady, after the sonogram, immediately came and she said, "Your brain really -- it doesn't look good. You have to go immediately to the ER or contact a primary doctor." They found my carotid artery disease. It is really serious.

I called my doctor and she was busy. I talked to the nurse and told her, "I went to Life Line Screening. I have this vein blockage you discover. I have a blockage in my vein. I was told, in 12 hours, to immediately contact the doctor or ER. I just really need help.” She said, "I will talk to the doctor." She called me the same day back. She said she was going to order a sonogram. It was like a double sonogram. It took a really long time for the sonogram to be finished.

I am praising Life Line Screening highly. When I compared the sonograms from the hospital and Life Line Screening, they were the same. The hospital sent their result to my primary doctor. My doctor personally called me and she said, "You see, you have a blockage. Take aspirin by 88 milligrams. And if you will have trouble talking through speech or thinking, you just go to the ER."

The Life Line Screening technicians acted like they were secure in their job. I did the screening for heart disease and stroke. The quality of the results I got was very good.
