No doctors?

I was a bit alarmed to see that the collective authors didn't mention doctors in the list of healthcare professionals who carry out venipuncture. I appreciate that many doctors have the luxury of not having to take blood, but some don't! I am a doctor in the UK and I carry out venipuncture every day of my working life.RichYPE (talk) 16:38, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

Merge proposal

I propose merging Winged infusion set into Venipuncture. I think the content in Winged infusion set will not expand enough to ever be more than a stub article and can easily be explained in the context of this article, and merging them would not cause any article-size or weighting problems.

maybe expand on needle anxiety and perception of pain
