I’ve never had any problems. The staff is ok. They all seem competent. The only employee that’s exemplary, is dude with the short dreads. I think his name is Jamal. Downside is the cleanliness of the facility. The bathrooms are horrible, always dirty and never have paper of any kind. Most of the building is messy. If they hired someone to be there all day to just clean, this place would be 5 stars.

One of my close friends told me that this place was a awesome place to go to so I took her word on it and I came here my first experience was when I asked to use the bathroom they told me the bathroom was broken and I had to come back out for soap because I guess people steal or whatever the case may be so I go to go walk towards the bathroom and all I see is blood all over the floor in the hallway towards the bathroom in the bathroom going towards the back where they take your vitals so I mentioned it to the front deaf lady someone comes out and they just wipe it up they don’t clean it up with no type of Clorox or any type of liquid just wiped it up with paper towel that’s it then they had the bathroom door to the bathroom a lawsuit ready to happen hanging off of the hinges only on by two hinges very dangerous oh let me not forget I was a first-time donor and my appointment was at 11:45 which I was there at 11:30 I didn’t get out of there until 5:00 in the afternoon they did not put me in front of no one I had to wait to be seen by the nurse for a couple hours then even when I got into the back to be on one of the machines and you’re supposed to go in front of the line is because you’re a first-time donor that’s a whole bunch of people will be sitting in the back as well waiting to be on the machines don’t let the wall full you when you first come in the building thinking that’s the only waiting room cuz it’s not and the people that they have working there don’t even seem happy about the job they’re not smiling you probably get about two people if you’re lucky in that building that has a good high Happy and vibe okay so that was my first experience my second experience I came there on a Friday and when I tell you the wait was crazy too you’re waiting a few hours before you even get on a machine and then back there they have people that are working very slowly at a slow pace and then they’re carrying around the tubes with the blood in it to throw it out all the way at the back door when they should just have a trash can or bucket that they can just pull around and put in there I just really believe it’s very unorganized and not to mention the smell of the bathrooms they might as well put a man’s bathroom and a woman’s bathroom and have it like that and fix the doors toilets and clean the place up a lot they definitely need maintenance for and some new workers just my opinion only been here twice but definitely one of the places that will give you the most money but probably a horrible experience to go through if they really want to get better ratings they got to do a whole lot better in every way.

I was a new donor on my 3rd visit passed my vitals iron protein everything was great. I seen a relative who just got finished donating he was leaving and had a job opportunity for me I grabbed his phone number to contact him in reference to the job and one of the staff canceled my visit for taking his number down by the door threshold i was not able to donate because it was pass 6pm closing and I couldn’t get my vitals done over management held no integrity it’s like she tried to antagonize me so she could permanently defer me from donating highly unprofessional. My visit got canceled based off staff wanting to leave so that made a sudden decision to cancel and deferred me for the day. I do not wish this type of pain, evilness not even on my worst enemy highly recommend donating else where . Since my initial first day they only held a select number of seating for waiting donors and the bathrooms are filthy it’s just the bottom of the barrel it’s scary . One bathroom dirty and work the other one is so badly soiled and dirty that they tapped it off with scotch tape the door broke so the fumes of urine seep through

I have been to this location about 5 times. 3 out of the 5 times. Other patients were called ahead of me on 3 different occasions. Only this time was it looked into but not corrected. Sometimes a person was 1 person behind me sometimes 2 or three places behind me. This is very inconvenient and unfair

I have been here maybe a few 10 times and the donation process was fine but the wait omg it takes forever and a day!! The restrooms NEVER have soap!! You don’t know who is waiting for the kiosk and who is waiting for screening since there is no separation. I’m kind of hard of hearing so I’d appreciate if they had a better way of calling the next donor other than screaming your name from the other side of the wall. On my last visit they messed up my right arm and I have a huge bruise. They tried to find vains on my left arm and said they’re too small. Uh hello I’m from Houston and they could stick my left arm with no problem!

Come here with my husband and I sit while he’s seen. It’s always dirty in thw bathroom and I mean you can come soon as doors open and the restrooms weren’t clean from the previous day. Then it’s a long line in the front which isn’t bad because they process people in quickly but then 6ou have to wait in the back as well because of staff. Them bathrooms are vicious

I have made 10 prior donations with myleft arm. Today the tech and “Acting Manager” made me use the other which didn’t work and when they went to switch the manager started backing out of it being her fault. She talked so much the thing closed my session. No apology and they needed to be threatened with the police to even pay me.

Surprised that this place was a little more ghetto than I was expecting. Some people were professional and polite others were more interested in flirting with my husband than being polite ignored me to use their cell while getting vitals done and they yelled throughout the donation center having conversations about their personal lives. I was shocked. Wasn’t all bad but I didn’t go back.

The morning staff is absolutely lazy and unprofessional. They constantly refuse to call people for close to an hour after 10:15 while waiting for the 11 a.m. crew to begin work. Expect a 4 to 5 hour visit with up to an hour after to be paid. My advice is to avoid this place if you want to be treated as a human and donate at a different center.

Out of all the centers I’ve been to, this is the dirtiest and takes the longest. Every time I come the bathrooms are dirty, half the computers don’t work, and they never have enough phlebotomists to make the line go at a reasonable speed. Everyone just herds at the back of the room waiting for sometimes 2 hours until our names are screamed out with a bad attitude.
