I was greeted immediately upon entering the building and the receptionist was wonderful. I enjoyed…read moreher happy yet professional demeanor. Once checked in, I was taken to the back to check vitals and go over any additional questions. A quick and to-the-point experience! Usually, the finger prick back there hurts more than the actual needle for giving blood. But, this experience was the exception! Now, I totally understand that phlebotomists have to learn from real life experience and the phlebotomists on staff were really lovely people. They made sure I was comfortable and everything around me seemed sterile and clean! So, as comfortable as you can be in a doctor's office setting. But, my vein couldn't be found by the first phlebotomist, so she asked for another's help and the next phlebotomist rolled it a little into my vein for a slow draw and got worried about it clotting, and so then they called the third and final over as a senior manager and she was really gentle. I was relieved she came by, because I was starting to really feel woozy and the burning in my arms intensified with the needle rolling. But, she was able to roll it into a fast and healthy flow so that I could finish up in no time. She wrapped me up, said I could take a snack, and sent me on my way. But, I felt nauseous from the experience (needles usually don't bother me) and my arm bruised up pretty bad and was sore for days. Like blue/black color. I understand the learning process, this was just my experience and I feel a bit traumatized for going back anytime soon. Luckily, everyone was nice and I appreciated the snacks. My review is right down the middle! I'll obviously go back to keep up with donating and just hope by that time that my vein can be found and that the training is more extensive and effective so I'm not that sore or bruised again. Cheers!

This place needs to be closed down or hire all new staff or hire a new manger, this is ridiculous and needs to change now for the community and for the people who donate

This place discriminated against me for being trans even though meeting all of the legal…read morerequirements for donating plasma at the time of my appointment. The manager, Brenna Thomas told me I was denied because of my address. She claimed that my address was supposedly on a federal 'no donate list' because she claimed it was a halfway house (it isn't). My complex has never been a halfway house, not to mention it's literally across the street from the local high school for the community she operates in. Not to mention I'm not a felon. Put simply; she refused service despite having met all legal requirements for donation, made up an excuse and bold face lied to me about the reasoning behind her denial. Again, despite meeting all legal requirements that a trans person must meet to donate. Not to mention Brenna Was incredibly rude, condescending and disrespectful to me while speaking to me both over the phone and in person.

On the first try to make an appointment through the website there was a note saying they weren't accepting appointments but they would accept walk-ins. When I arrived at the storefront/office I was told they only accepted appointments, not walk-ins ?????? OK, I went home and tried the website again, selecting different dates until it would accept an appointment. Showed up 5 minutes before my appointment. An hour and 20 minutes later people with appointments earlier than me were still waiting. Technicians appeared to be available but no place to service the donors.

Today, I had a 7:30a.m. appointment. At 8:10a.m., I was still sitting in the waiting room and had not even been checked in. This isn't an isolated incident. The Parker location routinely runs behind, which makes it difficult to donate when you are trying to fit an appointment into a workday. The staff members are pleasant and the Parker location is convenient, but donors are giving their time as well as their blood. If the center is going to actively ask people to donate and provide scheduled appointment times, it should staff the location appropriately or communicate delays clearly. If you have the flexibility to wait 45 minutes or longer, this location may still be convenient. Otherwise, I'd recommend scheduling at another location.

If you're on the fence about donating, know that the needle is nothing to fear for an incredibly positive and worthwhile experience.
