Not a bad place. It's clean, the staff are qualified. The process at your first visit takes a…read morewhile but after that, it's quicker. Just like the rest of the world, some days they're short staffed so patience is key. The first 7 times you donate plasma, you get $100. So you can do your research and compare that to CSL and other plasma Donation facilities. The facility closes at 7pm and claims you can come in to donate any time before they lock the doors. But, if you come in at 6:58pm, you probably won't finish your donation for an hour or so. With that being said, it is noticeable that the staff do not like when customers arrive after 6:45pm seeing as they can't leave until your donation is completed. Otherwise, it could be a good opportunity for a little extra cash for a good cause

Your money is not secure. I donated this past Friday, 02/16/24, and that evening I had $253 of…read moreunauthorized charges against my Octapharma Comdata debit card that they pay you with. I used my card nowhere, I was saving this money for car repairs. They cleaned me out and over the last 2 days the same person, (thief), has tried to use my card 9 more times so far. The fraudulent purchases were placed with Amazon, (2x), and some African American female clothing site named Fashion Nova. The only opportunity to have had my data stolen was Octapharma itself and they refuse to do anything. I would avoid this shady business at all costs. You have been warned, I was cleaned out of all the money I made from 2 months of donating.

Mind you he rode 6 miles on a bike to the center. Also, Karsten says he is the coordinator, after me asking for the office manager they sent this person up. My son is given rides to his appointments from his insurance and they waited til he got there to tell him he was deferred because of his odor.

I can honestly say I was a bit drowsy goin there, so instead of lifting me up and boosting the spirit of donating, I was basically scrutinized against from these horrible people they claim to be human.

Well I tell ya, lesson learned, and I hope the witch who treated me like this has her day of judgement, karma is coming for you.
