ADT was able to get me the best tests

Dealing with allegation’s of drug use that completely false is stressful, ADT was able to get me the best tests, going back the farthest in the same day with as little hassle as possible, I spoke with 1 person and wasn’t transferred once, and they took my payment, and got me my work order for a clinic as close as possible for the service I needed. 5*

Super easy to schedule and get what you need, weather for a job, personal, or court ordered! I believe I spoke with Justine who was helpful in answering all my questions and stayed on the phone with me until she was sure I was all set and got the emails I needed.
