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*
