Careers at Stumptown
Independent Contractor Mobile Phlebotomists
Stumptown Mobile Lab Services provides mobile specimen collection throughout the Portland metropolitan area. We welcome inquiries from experienced, certified phlebotomists who value patient comfort, clear communication, and careful specimen handling.
How We Work
Thoughtful care, built around the patient.
Mobile phlebotomy requires clinical skill, clear communication, and respect for each patient. Our approach gives each collection the attention and care it requires:
Patient-Centered Scheduling
We schedule realistic appointment windows that allow time for difficult draws and for patients who need additional support, including older adults and patients who feel anxious about blood draws.
Clear appointment information
Accepted assignments include the appointment details and collection instructions needed for the visit, with coordination from our team when questions come up.
Careful specimen handling
Specimens are labeled in the patient’s presence and handled according to the test-specific instructions and the designated destination’s requirements.
Rooted in the Portland Community
We serve patients in private residences, care facilities, and workplaces across the Portland metropolitan area and surrounding communities.
