The staff here is competent and helpful. I’ve been donating blood here for a few years and have always had a good experience. They are open 7 days a week, so it’s easy to find available times to give.

I made an appointment for whole blood donation and I couldn’t ask for a better team of staff. The lady up at the reception, and technicians Ms Darlene and Shei were so kind. Everyone made sure that I was comfortable the whole time and constantly checked if I needed anything. The whole process was about 45 minutes or so of which 10 minutes was the actual blood collection

I used to enjoy donating blood; after all I work in a hospital. It’s been a long time since I’ve donated but the reason being that the past 3 times I’ve been to this location, I was not eligible to donate because of a low iron level. That was disappointing but what was embarrassing is the looks I got from the employees. When I arrived they were very friendly; however when they saw my iron level after pricking my finger they told me I wasn’t eligible in a very rude tone of voice with eye rolling. They had looks on their faces like I was just wasting their time. Now to this day I still get phone calls from American Red Cross because I have an O blood type but I’m not going to “waste their time” anymore. Just be sure you are absolutely eligible to donate (check your iron levels before coming to this location). I hope everyone else has a better experience than I did because I am no longer interested in this place. Why would I drive up there in the middle of the day just for no reason! I have a life! I was there because I wanted to help people but they will only be respectful to you if you’re eligible to donate. Just trying and having a good heart isn’t enough apparently.

Had a great experience at this location. Staff was helpful and courteous. There was an issue with drawing from my veins at first, but they asked for additional help from other nurses versus bruising the needle site. I will definitely return and have already scheduled a platelet donation for two weeks later.

I wasn’t sure about this place at first. I showed up for an earlier appointment to donate whole blood after checking online first to see if it was still available (it was). At first they made me feel like I was an inconvenience. Once we got past that it was a really good experience. I got very nauseous and nearly passed out at the end of the donation. Kiki responded quickly and stayed very calm while she helped me out. She was very good and center was really nice.

The staff is usually helpful & very friendly on most visits. Today there was no one at the front desk and the open sign was not on at 11:00 am. There was a guest seated in the waiting room who had an appointment. She ended up leaving because they were running behind. When i inquired about the wait to donate whole blood, I was told it would be a while. I got the impression that the need for blood is not as urgent nor appreciated as the numerous emails/phone calls Red Cross sends out. I am going to donate at a different blood donation center to see if my experience is any different. I think most people want their time & blood donation every 56 days to be appreciated.

Wonderful clean place. The stuff was super nice and kind. Kiki took care of all of my needs and throughout my 2.5 hour session she went above and beyond to make sure I’m comfortable! Highly recommended
