2 hours wasted time. I was refused because of a neck surgery 41 years ago in 1983. I've been a donor since 2008 and have over 300 donations from other locations like United blood

DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT get involved with this organization. The staff that does physicals are the most inept, unqualified, borderline ignorant, unsanitary humans you will ever meet. The staff that does the actual donation procedure are good at what they do. The rest of them are complete failures at getting you into your donation. Typos, unclear communication and sanitariness made me cry I was so frustrated with them. Total waste of time and that is very sad because donating plasma is an important for medical purposes and research. There is no place to give a NO STAR experience which is what it is.

My roommate and I set up appointments together and Biolife called us the day of and rescheduled our appointments for the next day. On our way to our appointment we tried calling to see which center we were scheduled at and got no answer at either location. When we got to the center for our appointment Staff was very rude very unprofessional had little regard or respect for my time. If ur wanting to donate plasma or give this company any of ur time I highly suggest not doing it.

I had been going to BioLife for 5 years twice a week and had always joked with staff, they were super friendly, but then personnel changed to a hateful group with false accusations of meth usage and mixed race hatred. I have donated my plasma for 30 years because I truly believe that it saved lives. I never did meth or other substances ever. But BioLife employees made me feel very bad when they accused me of such. They are the most hateful group of people in Laramie Wy.

Second time going to Biolife. Very great experience. Staff is very informational and understanding. They took very good care of me and my questions. The process was quicker the second time. Shout out to Ashely R. She gave me tips on what to expect and also recommended that I drink a Gallon of water the day before. I took the advice and not only did I feel great from being hydrated but donating plasma was a breeze. Thank you Ashely. (: I will recommend this company to anyone inquiring about Plasma or its services. I WILL continue to come back again and again. Again, THANK YOU Ashley R and Biolife staff. If you’re looking for a place to donate Plasma, this is your place. But don’t take my word for it, experience it for yourself!

This place has no sense of urgency at all and it seems like trainees trying to figure out how to insert a needle in your arm.The management is non existent if any.look like kindercare with needles.Dont waste your time.

Massive waste of time, gave me wrong information, never returned calls or messages. wasted several hours over several days just to be told that they gave me the wrong information. When asked about it they just said sorry try again later. Don’t waste your time.

I made an appointment just to wait over an hour. Stay away from the Washington square location. They will waste your time. Will be donating with a company that knows what they are doing.

i used ti be in and out in 90 minutes until september. now its usually 3 hours even when its not busy. hire more people so the process goes quicker. and they need to get rid of the pop musc. replace it with kday stream or sports talk radio

I had an appointment for 12 o’clock today. I sat on a bed for 40 minutes and nobody ever came over to me. People were coming in after me and getting served first. I finally just got up and walked out. I will try again later today if I cool off.

My donation location is Ames IA. Might be switching to Grifols on N Loop Drive. Kept getting Biolife ads for an extra $800 for 8 donations in 30 days, thought it wouldnt hurt to try. Week 4, had a med change by my PCP. Did not take the new meds as I did not want them to interfere with completing the final donation. A very rude nurse made me wait an hour for med change review, while she completed new donor exams for people who arrived after me. Then, advised of the new prescriptions, despite not having taken the meds, she imposed a 30 day ban on donation from when the meds were prescribed, so I could not complete my donation. Manager Kyle seemed to want to be more reasonable, but acted like his hands were tied. I was offered a "comeback card" for a much lower amount, and only good if I return and do 2 more donations within 30 days (you know, the exact time of the donation ban). Nothing about this on the website.

Oh, and their app is supposed to not let you schedule if you aren't eligible to donate. But immediately after leaving, I wondered if that was true.. Found out I was able to schedule for the next day (I canceled it of course). But if I go back, that gives me zero confidence that I won't travel there next time and not still have a ban in place and it will be another big waste of time.

The waits are LONG! Even with an "appt", I've waited in line for an hour or more before getting to a chair. I was there for over 3 hours tonight for my 8th donation! I don't know why they require a time commitment when they don't uphold their end of it. The skill of the phlebotomists really varies which results in longer times in the chair and possible sticks in both arms to ensure full payment for a donation. The staff have been super nice, so this mixed review is for that reason.

There a girl by the name of Thomaria that works there she amazing. It's people like this that's makes the differences.

David, at the Lombard location, as always, did a perfect job. My donation went smoothly and David is always friendly!

I have been coming and donating for well over 2 years now and everything is usually awesome, even when the place is at its busiest, however today was very frustrating. I got to my donor bed and was waiting, (well past an hour from my appt. time). I observed the guy doing disconnects and then started getting someone else set up that came in way after I did. I told the lady at the front desk and she informed him that I had been waiting a long time and was supposed to be next. He finally came over, no sorry about that, no how are you today or anything. Then once done didn’t ask if I was okay ot to let him know if I needed anything.

The staff is really nice but the really long lines and wait times that are usually 1.5-2 hrs before getting plugged in are crazy since we have "appointments". So I cannot be 1 minute late and can't leave the room after signing in, but it takes 3 hrs to be done which is really frustrating! The money is very low for the first visit of the week so you are pressured to come back. This makes it really hard if there 25+ people waitingi n line in front of you because then you are trapped. Been going for months but it just is not worth the time and effort anymore.

I am an eight gallon whole blood and several platelets donor but was told I was ineligible to donate plasma because I fainted one time in my adult life. This would have been good information to have before I drove an hour and a half to the facility and spent 2 hours in the screening process. Should have at least been given the opportunity. Want the $100 I was promised at least for my time since it was not my choice to donate. Warning to new donors, don’t waste your time if you have ever fainted even one time in your life!

I've been to three locations. First was Independence MO, clean, knowledgeable staff. The l8nes at this location are always there, but they move through them quick enough. Second was Liberty MO. again very clean, knowledgeable staff. There are never really lines other than one or two people, they are efficient at their jobs and always have a smile to give. Thirdly is the St.Peters location. Extremely clean, knowledgeable friendly always chatting you up staff. There are lines but again a very efficient staff that moves through them quickly.
I really enjoy doing this sure the 800 that they paid over my first 8 visits was nice. I am continuing for the people it helps. I received an email saying MG plasma was used in 16 life saving procedures. That made all the difference for me knowing that some soldier defending freedom or a car crash victim is being helped by me. I could never operate on someone or even stick them with a needle, but knowing I'm involved in the process of saving a life makes me feel proud. So no you'll never be rich by DONATING but you will get a chance to save a life. Lastly take it easy on the team at biolife they are just doing their part in saving lives.

I believe you should have better training or not allow beginners to place IV. My fiance has gone in and has been hurt often to where his arm swells up because of inexperienced staff. He had a girl this week literally just stick the needle downwards so deep with no reason as to why she did it that way then called for help. His arm has been swollen all week because of her mistake.
This has happened plenty of times and he hates saying anything because were too nice but it's not fair to be hurt. He said he already knows who knows and doesn't know how to do their job correctly in regard to administering the IV and just waits in hopes of not getting hurt because he wont speak up.
I know a person chooses to donate but also should not be hurt just because it's a choice to be there.
