This CSL location rarely ever has a line. The employees are friendly and always seem to be joking…read morearound with each other, which shows there's a good team synergy. At the same time they're very professional and use every sanitation precaution necessary for a nice sterile, clean environment. They disinfect seats and place signs on the ones that have been recently disinfected/ safe for a new donor to sit down. Currently, the staff all wear masks as well as face shields and gloves. Masks are also required for donors. Hand sanitizer and alcohol pads are also readily accessible. Your first visit to CSL will most likely be your longest (approx 2 hours). You will be required to watch a brief video, fill out a long questionnaire and give your consent. They will then take your vitals (temperature, weight, blood pressure, finger prick for protein & iron levels) to ensure you qualify before you're allowed to actually donate. You're not donating whole blood, so your blood type DOES NOT MATTER. You are only giving plasma. It's actually fascinating to watch as the machine withdraws your whole blood, spins it to separate the plasma and "spits out" your pure plasma into a container. The machine then returns the rest of your blood back to you (red blood cells, platelets etc). At the end of your session, the last step is to replenish your electrolytes with an IV of a very chilly 70°F saline solution. I have never felt whoozy or lightheaded after donating plasma. But I have definitely felt cold! So pro-tip if you run cold like I do: BRING A BLANKET! (and a book or earphones/AirPods as you can listen to music or watch a movie on your smart device while you donate). They even have FREE WIFI! You will receive compensation based on the amount of plasma you donate. And your donation amount is determined by weight scale (i.e. the more you weigh, the more plasma you have to give). Each location has a different pricing scale. You can donate up to twice in a 7 day period and you are even allowed to donate at ANY CSL location in the US! I've donated in both FL and TX. Reasons to give your plasma: 1. Plasma helps burn victims. 3. Plasma helps adults & children with certain types of cancers. 4. Plasma helps people with liver or clotting factor disorders. 5. Donated plasma can be frozen & stored for up to one year. 6. Approximately 10,000 units of plasma are needed every day in the US. 7. Plasma transfusions are often lifesaving!!! So get out there, donate more plasma and help save lives!!!

Always professional and in good spirits. I've never had a problem so far so good. The only…read morecomplaint I have is that they need to assess people on the lines with their mobiles on blast.

Friendly staff, good music playing in background. A great way to help people in need and the bonus…read moreto that is m additional reward of money, instantly applied to a debit

Actually and I am talking around end of the 2023, this center had a big progress compared with…read moreinitial years. First that all ,they got a really good team of friendly and capable people that right now work so hard/quickly ,and the main is that they Know so well what are doing and how treat with respect and kind to the donors. Unfortunately not all is pink color over there, the administration of the center to me is not the best one, the person in charge looks like doesn't take better care of the excellent employees that she has and made bad decisions how terminate the job of the best phlebotomist in the center(team leader) ,TREE, excellent and nice worker and with the better hands to stick the vain. Lady sorry about, but you lost a lot with your rigid choice!!, to be a good boss and get the respect of your employees should first appreciate what they are doing for you and be considerate because all the persons have problems and needs in one moment of their lifes!! Hope that you can handle in better way the still excellent staff that remains in your center: All are really wonderful persons: Nece, Paul, Agnes, Jazmine, Richard, Victor, Erin, Aneica, Dania,Chenice. Sorry if other names are not in my review but are not except I love all of you guys!!!

I'm not sure the purpose of requiring donors to make an appointment when they have such incredibly…read morelong wait times. The thing that really doesn't make sense is if a donor is late by 15 min or more, they make you reschedule. This place is slower than the DMV despite how few donors they have. Hemarus is the only other donation center that takes this long. The other two centers are ran much more efficiently. When I first came to donate, I told them I was taking a medication that was not on their list. They made a huge deal of it and required me to get a doctor's note which was not easy considering most doctors don't want to sign anything these days and the fact that when I "see" my doctor, it's over the phone. It didn't matter that I donate at other centers. They have their own policies and quite frankly Grifol's policies don't even make sense. The phlebotomists and staff are very nice. However, the week of Christmas 2022, they lowered the pay almost to half as much. How grinchy and this demonstrates how little they care for their donors. I won't be back anytime soon. I also think they should pay their staff more competitive wages so they won't have such a high turn around. These individuals work really hard and the pay out is close to Mc Donald's.

Went here for the first time today and was met with total lack of professionalism when I entered…read morethe sign said check in with security or front counter. No front counter person and the security guard isn't greeting people coming in but just chatting with people not even doing his job. Then when I'm walking back in fourth after 5 minutes he ends up telling me nobody can accommodate my appointment and will have to come in another day. Well say less if u don't want my business I will end up going to another plasma donation place one that treats me and my appointment time with respect and display a professional attitude towards guests. Would rather go to Octapharma which I've never had a problem with and has always treated me nicely.
