Donating blood is easy and quick! This location helps make things smooth and you feel really…read morewelcome. We did a walk-in on our most recent visit as we weren't expecting my husband to get out early enough to make it during their Friday open hours (only open til 2 p.m. on Fridays). They were quick to greet us and very welcoming - they had no issues with the walk in. The location was clean and well-kept. The staff was thorough, but quick with everything so we were there for less than 30 minutes all in. They have private screening rooms for checking your overall health and eligibility. From there they offer you snacks / drinks in order to keep you happy during donation(s). The blood draw room is off to the left when you enter and there are several beds. There are a few TVs and they play mainstream shows that keep you distracted. Overall: A+ Donate if you can! You can help save up to 3 persons with EVERY donation. This location is super quick and easy to get through.

I arrived at 7sm & was glared at by the staff who told me I should've made an appointment. I explained that the Oviedo office told me thry were unable to make one for me because they were locked. I donated platelets & plasma. The staff rolled their eyes in despair when the machine would beep. It was a lot of work squeezing my fist repetitively for hours. Their sourness made it worse. They kept trying to take my remote control, finally in wanted to keep it & asked one to please get batteries elsewhere. It was not fun.

No member of staff could say what was happening other than their systems were down. I asked for a manager who said I should stop asking questions (like did we have a time frame for any delay?) because it made her staff uncomfortable since they didn't know the answers: I said I had planned on a few hours but would like to know if I needed to reschedule. The manager shrugged. I called to complain and was rescheduled for another location. When I arrived and halfway thru the physical, I was told I was banned and all staff refused to speak further. If that's how they perform customer service imagine their medical skills!

I used to donate twice a week at CSL in San Diego, and the bar they set is way too high for BioLife…read moreon Good Homes Rd in Orlando. Yesterday was my first donation with them, and the first time I saw a trail of blood dripping down my arm within the first five minutes of the donation process. Another lan technician came by to switch the needle from the left arm to the right, could not find the vein the previous technician found, and my donation was ended immediately without blood being returned. No accountability, either...they just talked to me like it was MY fault while the other techs have zero customer service skills or professionalism; they were shouting at me from across the room and loudly talking amongst themselves about break time and weekend plans. I will not go back.

From the great people that take your vitals before you give your plasma to the phlebotomist that actually take your plasma are incredible.

They are efficient, caring, well spoken, and actually give a damn about you being there to help other people. I'd like to personally thank you all for the incredible job that you do and your patience and skills every day. Thank you, Donald Tucker

Update: I am taking…read moreaway 2 of my stars. If it wasn't for most of the staff being nice it would be getting no stars. Every time the wait is horrendous. Either hire more staff, OR (because I understand staffing and finding employees is hard right now so i say OR) limit/reduce the amount of appointments allowed. This would result in better performance and less wait. I honestly despise coming because the wait is so long. What's the point of an appointment if you have to wait OVER an hour to even get started So far I'm only giving 4 stars because the wait is INSANE! I had my first donation, but everything took EXTRA long even more so. I understand I'm a new patient but when it takes OVER an hour waiting for each station it's insane. My appointment was for 8:50, I showed up promptly then. I did not leave until 1:20pm. So 4 and a half hours. Double the length it should have taken. The facility is nice and clean, staff is friendly but not clear at all in the beginning on the process or wait length. So we will see how donations go moving forward. But just prepared to have a free day your first time.

This is the absolute WORST! I went here bc they offered the smallpox vaccine incentive, but…read morelearned you must first donate 2-3 times BEFORE the smallpox vaccine incentive. Ok, I was willing. The 1st visit- nobody seems to man the "customer service" desk, I arrived 5-10 minutes after opening and went directly to the customer service desk where I stood waiting for 10 minutes before a very bored looking technician asked if I need d something!? She got another sad/bored employee to help me. No one in this place looks happy, there is NO music, I went in February and the remnants of old Xmas decor was still partially taped to various places on the wall. I've gone 3 times now, every time the technician (always a different one) jabs the needle in my arm... then starts "threading" the needle in my vein!! The last time I was there: 4-5 "suits" there waiting for a manager, the kiosk dirty and looks like syrup on it (at opening), rude tech doing vitals calling out my weight, and while donating, a technician named something like Janeka (?) bummed my corner donation bed so hard, it shifted about 6" and she never apologized or checked if everything was okay! NO ONE is happy here.. not employees or donors! I'd rather go back to BioLife... not as much $$ but the employees are always so sweet, the place is spotless and music is always playing! Oh... and you can make an appointment and not have to wait HOURS! Kedplasma needs to just shut their doors: dirty environment, rude/unhappy employees.
