So as any place nowhere is perfect. I've had bruising from the needle, I've been turned down before, I've even had the whole donation process take 3 hours! But after all that I still go from time to time. I put a hold because I don't want permanent damage from going to often and to just let my body heal. To me its worth it. I can get paid to save lives. Of course I wish the compensation was more but don't we all. I've had a good experience. Yes waiting is part of life. These people are booked out of their minds. Could improvements happen? Of course! I keep going back because to me its easy money to save a life. The needle insert hurts at times and THEY REALLY NEED TO DO BETTER AT THIS. ( So if you are afraid of needles don't come here, unless you are looking to overcome that fear.) And another, they just need more staffing. But all this to be said, I recommend it. But you have to go in knowing that you might be late to the next errand because there is a lot going on. I wont give this a 5 stars because logistics to need to change or have improvement of the building, but I will keep going as long as they let me. Also one more thing...Find a location that is closer to you so just in case that you get turned down for any reason. Saves you time. And make sure that you are hydrated to minimize the chances of being turned down.

So far they have been great

They gotta do better with wait times but the staff is always awesome

The staff is awesome. Always friendly and very helpful.

Usually the line I must wait in for the initial blood check moves along quite quickly and the line to get to a bed to donate plasma usually goes pretty rapidly. For the most part, people are friendly and professional.

Mostly it is all good, however biolife needs to limit amount of people on schedule. And keep floor chat about breaks out of the public eye.

I really liked everyone there. (Dallas-Beltline) I do wish there were some things that I could have known that I have had in place before my 1st appointment. 1. Had to reschedule my first appointment because I had a conflict with a program at school for Grandparents. I was not told that I could not leave the facility once I got there. ALSO 2. No one told me that I would need a letter from my Primary MD allowing me to participate since I was over age 65. This was already after being there for 2 hours. 3 Next time, my iron level was too low (Only a week earlier it was within limits). 4. Fourth time was "charm" and I was able to participate in apheresis. PROS: I appreciated the techs explaining the process with me. Although I was scolded for taking a picture of the giving levels readout. That was not explained prior.

Last week I went to donate twice the first time the tech could not hit either vein apologize and paid me the second time the tech tried one arm then the second which was a good hit but ended up being a blood clot caused by the bad stick and again sent me home this time with a non qualifying bruise which will cost me $70 I think maybe a little re training on poking please
