FINAL donation the machine malfunction and blood collection bag busted. Blood everywhere. I got paid $50 and we stopped the process but I was also deferred for 2 months! Unfair. I was more than 1/2 way finished donating in middle of a return. It's unfair to penalize us for the mistakes of the technicians. The blue/green haired girl with the glasses was setting up machines and several were faulty on this day. In addition. Jessica at the front desk is both rude and unprofessional. Her attitude towards donors is unacceptable. She needs to come back down to reality and watch her smart mouth and bad attitude towards donors. The promotion states $65 per donation but I'm only getting $40? Not worth a 27 miles drive! I'll go back BioLife or Octopharma instead. They pay more and they're closer. At the end of the day, it's the people that are the problem. Training or retraining might need to be considered.

It's unfortunate to read the only other review of this location, as it's an inaccurate…read morerepresentation of this facility and staff. I have been donating for over a year at the Bowling Green, OH location and I've never ONCE had a bad experience. Sure, sometimes they are swamped with donors, or in need of additional hands, but the high level of quality and care NEVER ceases to impress me!! I would name names of certain staff members that I absolutely love, but they know who they are, and honestly, I haven't met a staff member yet I haven't like and appreciated. In addition to the staff, the facility is clean and still seems brand new, all while not feeling like a "donation center". The operation runs very smoothly from intake to physically donating and I've only experienced delays during peak times or due to a random influx of donors on site. Payment is always on time, my questions are always answered, and if I've ever been deferred, it was due to something of my own doing (ineligible due to increased HR or HCT). So, if you are looking for a trustworthy operation that checks all the boxes, look no further. It's a great way to supplement your income and often times I get in and out so quick, that I'd almost wish it took longer as a break from my day. Well done to everyone and keep up the great work!

Gentle reader, have you ever made an appointment at a medical-related establishment, arrived…read moreon-time at the agreed time, and were told that the doctor is taking their lunch break, and you have to wait about half an hour? I don't remember having -that- experience in thirty years, or even ever! And it wasn't thirty minutes. After sitting in ever-increasing bewilderment and frustration (more about this near the end) for nearly an hour, I had to leave. My heart rate had elevated so much in anger, I doubt I would have been accepted anyway. This visit was originally planned to be a walk-in. Grifols advertises both online on and on the facility's phone announcement that walk-ins are welcome. This is a blatant lie. Like expecting a short wait to meet someone for an appointment. A final note: I'm one of those folks who have a difficult time with sensory overload. The music was constant, far, far too constantly upbeat to be calming (and implicitly, I'd imagine a sense of calm is expected for Grifols procedures), and there was an unsettling obnoxious too loud and too bright game show atmosphere in the entire environment. This might affect or might not affect you, but after nearly an hour of this nonsense, my skin was crawling, my heart rate was up, and I needed to leave. If I had been seen, y'know, nearer to the time of my appointment, I doubt this would have been near so irksome. Maybe I'll return and maybe I won't: this is my first impression and it wasn't good. If I don't edit this document, that impression has not changed.
