The place lives and health at risk of those that keep them in business and act as if they are doing you a favor by your purchasing their test strips.

Very unhappy that they have recalled the Freestyle strips for my insulin pump and then dont man their call center appropriately to accept the volume of calls to get replacements. Have been on hold for 2 hours so farafter trying to call all morning and having nothing happen because they had issues.
