Repeat Test

[sincereone]

Ok so I passed the "call in" process but the guy I spoke with said my liver test was moderately high and that I needed a retest and so I went back for the retest of blood work and the followed by ECG and Physical test. The Doctor said everything was good ECG perfect and history good. Once I was completely done with the process I handed my folder to the RN/Head Office Staff and he said if no one calls then come in at the schedule date and time but if someone calls then you know you didn't make it. So the question is I received the call saying the study was full but are they just saying that to cover up the fact that my blood work retest came back again high or is it really full? I just feel soing is shady about the whole situation especially when they screen applicant for the studies.

Eh, they would tell you if your labs were off for the second time; there is legal liability for them if they were to deceive you, plus what's in it for them to jerk you around?

Don't get me wrong, clinics don't mind jerking you around, but only if there is a benefit for them.

My experience with Celerion Tempe is that they are harder to get into than average; they have tedious screening procedures, like the torturous call-in requirement to get into the second part of your screening, and it seems their normal M.O. is to procure a lot of alternates for their studies; convenient for them, pain in the *** for you if you are one of the alternates.
