The facility has undergone significant construction and renovations, adding beautiful and well-designed additional buildings. The Main Entrance is so easy and there is even valet parking. We've been here for ourselves and our family members, and we've always received excellent care in both the ER and the main hospital. The staff, including nurses and doctors, are friendly and very well informed. This hospital is equipped to handle all kinds of medical care and emergencies.

Unfortunately, I've visited this hospital numerous times both as a patient and visitor. Fortunately…read more(for me), it has been on a visitor basis the last couple of years. The hospital has grown exponentially with new buildings. The staff are kind, the security and valet are on point, and the hospital rooms are very clean. As a patient, I appreciate the ability to order meals in advance. Moreover, they offer lots of alternatives such as almond and oat milk. As a visitor, I appreciate the ability to grab a cup of Joe. Bonus: if you're a fan of Starbucks, they serve it. They also have a large gift shop. Finally, the patient portal is a fantastic resource. While I hope I don't need to return as a patient anytime in the near future, I have no reservations about checking in at JMC especially for any oncology needs.

I have been a regular donor with CSL Plasma and appreciate the opportunity to contribute to an…read moreimportant medical resource. Many staff members at this center are kind and professional, and I respect the work involved in maintaining donor safety. However, my experience with one particular staff member has made the donation process increasingly difficult, and I ultimately decided not to return. On multiple visits I had interactions with a nurse named Gladys that felt unnecessarily confrontational and unprofessional. During one visit I was told that I had bruising on my arms. At the time, I explained that what was being seen on my arms was dirt from moving boxes at work earlier that day. Gladys spent several minutes wiping my arms with alcohol pads while stating that she was a certified nurse and knew what bruising looked like. The marks were removed with the alcohol pads; however, a note about bruising was still placed in my chart. When I returned a few days later, I was informed that I needed a nurse evaluation because my chart indicated "bad bruising on arms." I requested to see another medical staff member. She evaluated my arms and explained that there were no signs of bruising and that if bruising had been present from the previous visit it would likely still have been visible. I explained the prior interaction, and although the situation was eventually cleared, it delayed my ability to donate and was confusing. On another visit I had a small cut on my finger that had already scabbed over and was covered with a bandage. I was asked to remove the bandage, and the finger was repeatedly examined and pressed on during the screening process. The interaction felt uncomfortable and left me concerned that the wound was being closely probed despite already being healed and covered. I was not offered a replacement bandage. There was also an instance where I was told my hematocrit level was too low to donate. When I politely asked if I could see the reading for clarification, I was told that I was not allowed to view it. While I respect safety protocols, the interaction felt dismissive rather than informative, and I was told to "eat some steak and greens" and try again another day. I previously raised concerns and was told that I could request another staff member. However, the situation continued and the interactions remained uncomfortable, particularly since the center appeared to be short staffed and she was frequently the only nurse available. More recently, I brought my son in as a new donor. During his screening he was told by Gladys that something was seen in the back of his throat and that he needed to return with a doctor's note using the form provided by CSL Plasma. We scheduled and paid for a visit at MD Now urgent care, where the physician evaluated him and confirmed there was nothing wrong and cleared him to donate. When we returned with the completed form, we were informed that the CSL Plasma physician would still need to review the documentation before he could donate, which had not been explained during the original visit. We were also told that the CSL Plasma physician is only present at certain times and that we would need to call back periodically to find out if my son had been cleared. This was frustrating, as my son had returned prepared to donate based on the information originally provided. Another concern involved the form itself. It had been described to us as a "doctor's note" form; however, the reverse side of the document appeared to include an authorization for the release of medical records to CSL Plasma. My son did not recall signing a separate authorization allowing MD Now to release his medical records; it appeared that a signature from another form he signed earlier confirming his presence to donate may have been used in connection with this form. Because the form had been presented simply as a doctor's clearance note, it was unclear to us that it also functioned as a medical records authorization. This raised concerns for us regarding consent and privacy. Plasma donors contribute to an essential medical resource, and the donor experience should reflect professionalism, clear communication, and respect. I hope CSL Plasma management and corporate leadership review feedback like this, particularly regarding donor safety, communication, documentation accuracy, and authorization procedures, so that future donors have a better experience.

However, IMO, the influx of bringing doctors in who come from "those states" that want to overmedicate you in EVERY way possible is mind blowing. I have only had two people here I felt didn't need to be in the medical field at all. That feels like I won the lottery, and that says a lot. Until we have doctors without a god complex, patients will not be healthy. Pills do not fix the root cause.

Lovely organization to donate your hair when you get it cut. I've been doing this for years and…read moreit's very easy and a simple process. To donate your hair, a minimum of 10 inches, section it into ponytails or braids. Cut off the length you want to donate and mail it over to Locks of Love. If you'd like a certificate of appreciation, fill out the donation form from their website or simply add your name and email address on a piece of paper and slip it into your donation package. They get back to you in a few weeks after they receive the donation. I'm glad they have a super user-friendly process, anyone can do this!

Locks of Love is a non-profit organization, based in West Palm Beach, Florida. I understand that the donated hair is used to make wigs for children who have lost their hair due to chemotherapy or some other mishap. Note: My hair is on the fine, thin side, so, they might be selling my hair to a wig maker as other reviews state. When the salons opened up last year around June of 2020 (after being closed due to the pandemic), I made an appointment for a haircut. The lady at the salon made a ponytail - about twelve inches long - and cut it off with a sharp scissors! It was kind of traumatic. I must have shown the shock on my face because she told me, "It will grow back!" Haha! I had photos of my long hair - almost to my waist - and the Ziploc bag that held my chopped off ponytail - before I mailed my donation to Florida. Too bad those photos are in my old phone... Oh, well... Maybe I can donate again in a few more years!
