I have been coming here for several years, and I wouldn't say it's the best place, but it's not the…read moreworst. It pays good, and you can get in and out pretty quick. As far as quality goes though there is much to be desired. The lady that took the needle out after I donated, I believe her name was Divia, Really needed to change her gloves, the palms of them were brown, and they were wet, I think she had just been washing her gloves. This is unacceptable and extremely unsanitary. Besides this, though I have had good experiences, Brian Leer, one of the phlebotomist, is amazing. he's always friendly, he does a very good job. Probably the last thing I would like to mention is the conversation of the staff and the content on the TV is straight up inappropriate most the time. I don't watch TV anyways, but there's six of them and I can't help seeing it sometimes and the last time I was there, they literally had naked women on the TV for most of the time I was there. If you want to watch pornography, that is your prerogative, but I'm coming to your establishment to do business, I don't want it in my face the whole time. I don't think any of this is unreasonable to mention and I hope someone in authority can correct these issues this place has plenty of potential, but there are some things that need to be addressed.

They are so careless twords the customers that are making them a fortune! I'm old, and they kicked…read moreme out of the lobby in the freezing cold to wait for my lyft after I donated! Nobody feels well after donating and that kind of treatment afterwards is just shameful!!! Filthy bathrooms with no toilet paper, cuz they only clean once a day. Pay has gone down so much it's not worth it unless you're a new donor. It used to be $80 each time if you donated twice a week. Then they announced a $20 drop out of nowhere. Like they aren't making enough selling our "liquid gold"! Now the pay goes keeping your iron level just perfect to cheat is even more...not too high, not too low. They're so predatory they really need to be regulated by the state.

I visited DeGowin for the first time this week to donate whole blood. Great experience from…read morebeginning to end. The center is located in the General Hospital on Level 2 near Elevator B. You'll want to park in Ramp 2 and it is a bit of a walk. Clean facility. Amazing staff (shout out to Brian and RN, Neil). Plenty of snacks for pre and post donation. I've donated elsewhere, so I knew what to expect. If you're new to donating, staff does a great job of explaining the process. The center accepts walk-in appointments, but prefers that you schedule in advance. The online scheduling system is pretty easy to use and you'll receive an email reminder about your visit. If you need some incentive to donate, they have a rewards program. You can redeem points for prizes ('Let's TACObout donating' t-shirt here I come!) or you can donate your points back to a special fund at the hospital. These contributions go toward items for families with longer hospital stays - meal vouchers, etc. Also, free parking. Stop by the front desk before you leave to get some redemption codes. I had no problem redeeming mine, and you may need 2 (to cover 2 hours). Donating only takes an hour of your time and saves up to 3 lives. Please consider it!

Of course, I was a cracked-out teenager then without health insurance so I ignored the fact that I had a life threatening disease until later when I nearly died. But between my trip to your facility and my trip to that last doctor who said "Hey, you have Type 1 Diabetes!" there were years of other insundry doctors at Free clinics, ERs, and Student Health offices all over midwest saying "I don't know what's wrong with you. Are you bulimic? Is that why you throw up all the time. Are you depressed? Maybe you need to be on the pill. Try drinking more water and change shampoos if your hair is falling out. Maybe gain some weight. You're too skinny. Why do you keep throwing up? If your teeth are rotting and your skin is so dry try brushing and using a moisturizer. You're peeing a lot because you drank a lot of water. You're drinking a lot of water because you're peeing a lot. Stop peeing so much. Drink less coffee." I wish I'd listened to you right from the start. O well. I'm ok with my life-long medical condition now. Thanks for the heads up and the ridiculously simple sugar test only you thought to give me so many years ago..
