Getting around Polanco
Polanco sits just north of the Bosque de Chapultepec, and its two best-known reference points are Avenida Presidente Masaryk, the main shopping street, and Parque Lincoln. Metro Polanco (Line 7) is at Avenida Horacio and Arquímedes, which makes it the handiest stop for the eastern blocks of the colonia. Metro Auditorio, also on Line 7, is the closest stop on the western side, beside the Auditorio Nacional. Metrobús runs along Paseo de la Reforma, on the colonia's southern edge. When you book, choose Polanco for the traditional colonia and Granada / Nuevo Polanco for the newer towers around the museums.
What is around you
Chapultepec Park is the colonia's backyard, and the Museo Nacional de Antropología sits inside it, a short walk from the southern edge of Polanco. Inside Polanco itself, Parque Lincoln is the quiet pocket of green, a 1938 city park with a clock tower you will see on the Metro Polanco logo. Museo Soumaya and Museo Jumex are a short ride away; the usual Metro stop for both is San Joaquín. The cafe and restaurant strips are Masaryk and the streets that run off it.
A morning in Polanco
Home collection fits the way Polanco wakes up. The collection window is early morning, 6 to 10 AM, so a fasting blood draw is done before the first meetings and before the Masaryk cafes fill up. Once the extractionist leaves you can have breakfast, walk the loop around Parque Lincoln, or head straight to the office without a detour to a laboratory waiting room.
Who books from Polanco
Home collection suits people who work long hours in or near the corporate towers, and visitors staying in the hotels and serviced apartments along Masaryk and Campos Elíseos. Both groups tend to want the same things: a fixed time, an English-speaking service, and a report they can forward to their own doctor. Reports can be requested in English, and a passport is accepted as ID.
How home collection works in Polanco
Choose your tests, pick a date and select Polanco as your colonia. The extractionist arrives in the morning window you booked and collects the sample at your door. In towers, tell reception to expect a visitor and keep your ID or passport at hand. Collection runs Monday to Saturday, and the earliest available dates are shown while you book.
