Okay Ryan, tell me - I'd like to hear your take, since I operated a full-time professional studio for over 5 years before getting out of it (a little before my divorce, but not for that reason). Used Mamiya TB67 and Hasselblads for about all of my work (with a Polaroid back for testing as needed). Still have one Hassy and some A12 backs plus some of my lenses, BTW. So tell me about your lab. I used several and had B+ results overall (used a lab out of SWest Missouri a lot due to their reliability and safety procedures they used). Some pro labs were good in some areas but very few covered all the usual bases I needed (weddings/candids, commercial, large prints, special mountings/finishes, etc.).
