    My phlebotomist is great and he said that he can use a butterfly needle for mostt things but if he needs to do specific tests it does require a larger needle because the smaller needle does something to the blood. I don't argure...I am just glad he uses them everytime without anyone asking. This is my oncologists office though and they see many sick people all the time.
