    I donated several times at this location. If you wait I think a month in between donations you will…read moreonly be paid $20, as if it were the first time. I used to weigh 200 lb so I was paid $50 because they could take more blood, but then I lost weight so now I am only paid $45 but that's ok. Basically if you're big this gig is to your advantage. It's best to come in early so you don't have to wait long. The staff has almost always been competent and polite. Sometimes some have been grumpy. One time there was a complication and I started bleeding under my skin and my forearms became tingly and numb and I almost passed out. But I also was dizzy because I had wine the night before and you're not supposed to do that. They took good care of me after that though. Put my feet up, gave me ice packs and a Gatorade. Also one time right after I told an employee I'm musician and asked if she could maybe prick me at an angle that won't interfere with my practice sessions, she pricked me so hard I was bruised for days. So that was sweet. That was the same day I almost passed out. Basically the place looks shady but they do their job so you shouldn't worry about anything. I still like it better than Biolife, which I could never get scheduled into. It was a huge pain. CSL is much better for me and great if you're unemployed because you can come in the am on a work day and no one will be there.

    Was good at first but they never pay as much as they say they will.we just went today and only got…read morehalf of what we were told on the app we would get

    This place is ok. I don't have much experience to compare with. What I can say is that the line is…read moreforever and you are lucky if there are two people working the screening window. There is one guy who pulls his friends and lets them cut or he goes over to the counter to discuss boating and fishing with his buddies. It's already stressful getting thru the screening process. When you get to the back, you get to hear all the technician's problems and complaints about management, being lied to by management, staffing problems, etc. There is a lady and a guy who seem to be in charge but they would rather look important than to actually help their staff and make things run smoother and let their team sink. The guy in charge looks pretty cold like butter wouldn't melt in his mouth. I do like the phlebotomist boss. He is probably the biggest asset they have. If you go to this place be prepared to stand, wait and be treated to a drama show. Jerry Soringer Show has nothing on this place.

    IV tried different donation centers and they all hav lines but I return to Octapharma on 31st st…read moreTulsa because the giv great care they are all friendly,rembers my name and always willing to help. Ther are times it's frustratingly long line lots time spent waiting but cut them sum slack who knows why they backed up. And quite honestly we're doing each other a solid we donate yes but they pay and work hard and no one is making you be here. Consider it you time. That time of day we all need for peace of mind,reflecting on the day,or just enjoying the peace and knowing your doing sumthn good THANK YOU 191 Appreciate you all

You show up before your appointment (you can only check in 10 minutes in advance) and there is a line of 30 people still waiting to be screened for their appointment 45 minutes ago. A complete cattle-call. That's what it is. You're a cow lined up ready to be milked, except you will be stabbed with a needle twice and they're actually taking your BLOOD. While they're treating you like throw-away garbage.

    This is where I donate blood regularly. OBI makes is super easy and convenient to help save lives…read more It is actually the 9th largest, non profit blood center in the nation and they have the process down. After your first donation, you are set up an account and then you can go online and schedule your blood appointment donation. You can get reminders for your appointments and it is just so easy! Sometimes when I forget to make an appointment, they give me a call and I appreciate the reminders. You can always walk in to give a donation or look for a nearby blood drive. I like that they also test your cholesterol with every blood donation. It's a good way to make sure everything is good with your own health. Sometimes people don't realize exactly how much need there is for blood donations. Every two seconds, someone needs blood, yet less than 10% of those eligible to give blood do it. One blood donation can save up to three peoples' lives! They also have cute donation campaigns where they partner up with other community organizations like the Tulsa Zoo and they give away tickets and such.
