This place is a complete disaster. If you're a new donor, prepare to spend your ENTIRE day here for absolutely no reason other than pure disorganization and incompetence. I waited over 5 hours just to be processed, and not once did anyone explain why things were moving so slowly. The staff was incredibly rude and dismissive, acting like we were bothering them just by being there. No one greets you, no one updates you on wait times, and they treat new donors like an inconvenience. I saw several people just
This place is convenient and right up the street from my house. I'm not trying to throw any shade but Shaye is the best poker there... a couple of the other ladies hurt my little veins. I know they didn't mean to. Ijs
It was absolutely wonderful, I just got off my 1st shift, I'm tired they kept laughing n awake I love it . All of them are great
What a pleasant experience. I was very nervous going in here, but the staff here was fantastic. Especially Boris. He went above and beyond while taking care of me. Give this young man a raise. Thanks to all the wonderful staff at Grifols in Boise.
Robin was great with vitals and my new donor Physical. She was very knowledgeable and took time to answer all my questions. It was a great experience as a new donor.
Had a good experience visiting a new plasma center, got me signed up & going. Process was smooth and I would highly recommend anyone to work with them.
I have been coming here for the past 4 yrs, and the staff has always been so nice and easy to deal with. The center has always been very clean, and setup for comfort of their donors. I tried one other center but ended up coming back here because it is just better here than any other options. The parent company has begun to lower the payments a little bit but that is not a reflection on this center at all. Top notch staff and great center to donate at!!
So I'm a new patient. Had an appointment at 10am. I'm still sitting here. Typical black run business with typical Atlanta employees who don't really want to be here and it shows. There is no life in this place. This wait is unbearable as I have to sit here and watch the front desk lady fumble everything. This place is empty yet I've been sitting here over an hour with zero progress other than taking my ID. Great time to meditate but the music blasting is horrible. If you have a free afternoon I'd say
Great experience per time I come. The staff is absolutely amazing, they acknowledge when I'm there, answer all my questions, my money shows up immediately, the atmosphere is worthy asking the babysitter to watch the kiddos for an extra 2 hours!
The staff are the nicest very friendly. I've been coming to this location for the past two years. I enjoy the extra money but knowing that my donation is helping others is very rewarding. Clean location and conveniently located right off the highway.
Great place to donate-clean clinical areas, bathroom well stocked and spick-n-span, phelbs/techs are highly skilled, friendly and professional and the nurses (shout out to Robin!) are stellar! Plenty of convenient parking too!
The people here are amazing they're always gray and they do a great service
If I could give this place a -5 star I would. I worked here for a little over 8 months and was coincidentally fired as soon as a coworker at the job had her daughter come to the place to fight me as well as threatening to beat other workers. Within days I was told I was ?stealing time? all of a sudden. I wasn't given any other information into the ?internal investigation? they had and was terminated just a few days later after threatening to press charges. This is how grifols truly conduct?s themselves and
Great Professional Staff, Just Make sure To Call Before You go to check new donor Pricing.
I have been coming here since 2023 and they are absolutely amazing. The staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is wonderful as well. Never had a bad time at this place at....
I'm giving five stars to Michelle, Charmaine, Chris, Ciara and Brandy. They are very professional and helpful. Everyone is very nice and kind. I always come here for my plasma needs. They get you in and out. I would definitely recommend this location.
Robin is the best. Professional, dedicated, and always has a positive attitude ! Great person, & energy. This clinic shines because of her! Thank you
Friendly staff (especially Destiny, Brandi, Chris, Alexis, and Ms Michelle) that gets things done in a quick manner. They are good people that ensures safety and getting you in and out in a breeze.
I've been to CSL, BioLife, and ked plasma before grifols. Grifols is by far the best. I've never waited over 10 minutes for my vitals. Never spent more than an hour and 30 minutes here. And in that situation I wasn't hydrated enough. Location is definitely full of beautiful women with great personalities. They got a photo of Destiny in the comments. Smh. She KNOW she bad. Lol. But overall this is a great place with great people. Try it out. You won't regret it
I've been a regular at this plasma donation center for two years now, and unfortunately, I can't help but express my disappointment. Let me start by saying that the crew working here is absolutely fantastic. They're friendly, professional, and make the donation process as comfortable as possible. My dissatisfaction lies solely with the policies regarding compensation for plasma donation. Over the course of two years, I've witnessed a steady decline in the compensation offered for plasma donation, and frank
Ms.Bonner is one of best phlebotomists I have ever encountered. She takes great pride in her work and is a phenomenal person. She also does her job greatly & very efficiently. I highly recommend you to go to her when you donate at Grifoli Plasma Center ???
The center itself is great. Majority of everyone was really nice. I wish I knew the nurse that name that was ignoring me; too busy flirting with another donor and she seen I've was sitting cold and ready to go for 20min. Ruined my mood.
I've donated plasma for 18 years, i donate twice a week, grifols on windy hill is where I've found my permanent center. The staff is always patient, confident, and efficient. I feel welcomed and even greeted by name. Thanks guys.....Hightower
Let me start by saying there are some amazing employees that work here. I don't ever write negative reviews but I was so highly disappointed in the service I received for my donation today that I had to. As you can see in the photo my arm is bruised and swollen. It was so sore that I could barely hold the gauze against it to get my arm wrapped at the center. The employee that stuck me was so unprofessional. The amount of gossiping and profanity being used was beyond ridiculous. She was so focused on convers
First time experience of donating plasma was NOT as expected. The staff were understaffed and rude, and would not respect their patients. They would openly talk badly about people as soon as they leave right in front of other patients and joke around about important things such as getting correct reading on blood pressure and the like. They would not explain to me as to why my blood pressure was low, and told misinformation just by looks. I would not recommend. Go somewhere else such as Biolife. Don't waste
I love you all service. Best plasma place around. New equipment. And Ciara is so amazing, loving and nice. Need?s employee of the year. But the staff is the best I ever met donating plasma. And Gabby needs assistant employee of the year they have made every visit for me easy. Even tho they look like serial killer with those needles
I recently moved to the area and started donating and the customer service is excellent hands down very friendly staff !!! Brandy Destinyi Laura , Ciara and Mrs. S.O.P always smiling always courteous !!!! Great staff!!!
I come here faithfully to the donor center and they make sure they take good care of me so I would encourage everybody to come out and donate plasma if you could because it is a great way to help people and you benefit by getting money by helping people so again I appreciate the work that they do for the people at biomat USA plasma
The nurse told me to hold the bandage while she pulled the needle out! NO MA?AM! As a patient, who hates needles, I'm not touching it nor do I care to focus that much on it! She caught an attitude but so did I cause does the patient in school hold that? Nope! After the needle is removed I will apply pressure but not until you have removed all medical equipment from me! If something happened, I'm not certified to do that. She said it was the policy which I find hard to believe and if so it needs to be change
The employees were respectful and professional. They can really keep a conversation going and have you laughing and feeling comfortable. Clean, prestige, orderly and conducted in the highest regard of what a true clinic should be. Will always come back to this location. John is a great manager and his team is amazing!!
Robin was great. They took great care of me
This was a complete waste of 2 hours of my time. I was taken to the back to get my veins checked. The staff member that was checking my veins asked another for comfirmation. Then after thelat she told me "I was good to go". I went back to the lobby go through the whole process of reading the binder, watching the video, getting my donor number, answering the kiosk questions, getting finger pricked etc. I was called in to do my physical that when one of the staff member tells the women who was about the cond
I ABSOLUTELY adore the staff here! They are extremely friendly and helpful. The only downside is one of the employees suck at finding my viens. Often times leaving me with bruises which delays when I can donate. In turn limit the amount of $ I can get that week . It seems any donor that gets that employee ends up losing both arm viens and having to reschedule. One guy literally wasted 2 hours for nothing. If this happens to you, let's say the 1st arm didn't work but the 2nd one did and you completed donati
Nice staff, clean place, but the worst price I have seen for this type of service, they change the price in a crazy way, it's so disrespectful! They have changed so many times in the past 2 years, like 3 or 4 times. This is not fair. I highly recommend you to go anywhere else, not here!
Love grifols come here twice a week, staff is awesome including Brandi, michelle , alexis,josh both emarris, chris, Jonathon,ciara, nikki, naya always very cool
Robin was fantastic! She helped me and my partner through the registration process quickly and thoroughly!
Awesome staff! Destnyi is a phenomenal phelbotomist. India and robin are great nurses who will help with any questions. Very easy donation process.
This location accomadates well and makes the experience very safe. Current first month donor payments is $530 total if you do 8 visits.
Robin was fantastic! Very kind and fast as a new Donor!
The employees at this location only care about socializing and talking. You can literally hear them as soon as you come in the center. You can be beeping , needing attention, and even finished and they will be deep in irrelevant stuff conversation with eachother.
The staff is great!! They make you feel comfortable every step of the way. I love it there.
No issues here! Clean easy process..make sure you have time as it's walking in only and can be a bit of a wait. Bumping up to 5 stars! They've now streamlined everything so it's appointment only. I'm in and out within 90 minutes. love how I can book online AND also fill out the health questionnaire with their two apps.
This is the best plasma center I have ever been to and I would never want to go to another one. You should check it out. Khara is the best screener there and the only one I let screen me!!!! Come try it out
I really don't appreciate how I was in there over an hour reading all the rules and regulations that has not one mention of a weight limit, just to be told I am over it. My weight is on my ID, and they can see me.... it is disrespectful and rude. I was not turned away in a private manner either. Just humiliated for no reason. And FYI. just because someone is overweight do not mean they are unhealthy. My experience was horrible
I been coming here since 2019 and every one is so nice and professional. Never had any issues with the workers.
All the staff here are super cool , Brandi , Chris , Ms.Charlene , and Ms. India ! The list goes on ! Enviroment is super friendly definitely recommend biomat to be your donation place!
Ciara has been very awesome. She has great customer service skills.
Friendly staff, professional but not unfun or cold. Payouts are high compared to other places. Facility is always clean. Sometimes the waits are a little long but I never feel like the staff is being idle so thats mostly just volume.
Very cool and kind staff, Good energy almost everyone in this location love what they do is amazing, very friendly and hard working the energy out here is superb,keep up the Great work
I got here with an appointment at 7 am on 07/06. Was called back and put in my chair then skipped over for the person who was seated after me. Even after i reminded them that i was next. And, 2 techs were working on that one person and one of them just kept walking back and forth trying to ignore me. My other experiences were very pleasant. So, I am surprised by the way my appointment was handled this morning.
Destyni was great, she stuck me with no issues and was very nice. & Ciara was there too to help
The care and professional manor of Michelle and all of the staff is amazing!! I never have a bad experience when donating at this center
Called to figure out when I could donate next because I wasn't sure and the lady who answered the phone was rude af on the phone saying she'll walk me through how to do it on my phone but obviously I don't wanna do it on my phone that's why I called then she says well you'll be on hold for a while because I'm doing something. You're doing something but 2 seconds ago you were going to walk me through how to do on my phone but u can't take the last 4 of my donor number and my name which takes 2 seconds smh. S
The staff here always goes over and beyond and they are as efficient as possible to get you in and out! I enjoy donating here!
No complaints about this place, always get in quick and the staff are all friendly. Charell always does a great job as well.
Michelle is amazing!!!!! She is an amazing stick and I never have a problem donating!! The whole staff is incredible
I will be reaching out to head quarters. This is unacceptable, I have been in many healthcare environments and this place is very unorganized. I don't even know why they're still running but I guess that's because this is an easy way to get quick bucks for donors. There are suppose to be two people at the front desk to help out donors checking in and out. There was only one and she didn't know any information of the process. I respect the young people trying to start a career but these people have little to
Bad customer service need to learn how to be more professional
All the employees are nice, but don't want to work. Don't bother calling the center, I was sitting in the lobby over an hour and a half, the center is empty, and the phone was never answered. They even forgot I was there. Employees to busy gossiping and talking and talking. Worst experience ever.
I had a great experience all of the staff made me feel welcome and very professional I was in and out I love how clean and comfortable the beds are . They are very respectful of donors here I'm glad that my experience went well today.
Great experience and always fast. Workers are very nice and treat you like family!
One of the phlebotomist are encounter today accuse my blood of having clots when I've never been diagnosed from any doctor of having blood clots, and when she first stuck my arm, the blood came out, but because she pushed in further this probably caused clots because she went back-and-forth with the needle too many times to Get the blood to come out as long as I visit this Center she will not be able to touch me because I lost time and money from someone who didn't know what they were Doing
THIS PLACE IS A TOTAL WASTE...THE MORE PEOPLE THAT BECOME NEW DONORS,THE LESS AMOUNT OF PAY TO THE CURRENT DONORS AND I DON'T THINK THAT IS FAIR, BECAUSE YOU TAKE THE ACTUAL PAYMENT FROM THE CURRENT DONORS AND GIVE IT TO THE NEW DONORS....HONESTLY I FEEL LIKE THAT IS A BIG SCAM AND ROBBERY TO THE CURRENT DONORS LIKE MY HUSBAND THAT DONATES AT THIS LOCATIONS!!!
The employees Destyni and Cierra make the experience worth going back I appreciate y?all keep up the good work
Friendly and quick staff! Excellent phlebotomists
I have given palsma at a few locations around cobb county and I have to say that this location is by far the very best one.. I never really wait no more than 10 or 20 mins before I am in a chair and being sticked with the needle.. The women at this location are the nicest women I have ever interacted with and I believe each one of them need a pay raise... Thank you to all the staff for taking such great care of all of us that come in and give.. I appreciate you all very much Thank you all and keep up the gr
I enjoy my experience whenever I visit, the staff is always kind and on point.
Every time I come here they are angels! They make donating plasma a pain free and stress free experience, best needle sticks, can't feel a thing!
Mikayla and CeCe is the best they help me get log back in my app and was really helpful thank team Grifols !
Probably my words will not be enough to describe how good it is for me to be in this place, I forget that I am donating plasma and it is as if the Bio mat staff simply takes care of me and period!! Have your own experience, I hope it is better than mine.
I had a wonderful experience. As a first time donor, I had lots of questions, and everyone I encountered at this center was so kind and helpful. From the front desk lady, the lady who checked my vitals, the friendly doctor with dreadlocks who did my physical exam, to all the techs in the back who did the actual blood collection. I really wish I got their names. They were so professional and polite. Although I have pretty thin veins which I guess made me a somewhat difficult candidate, but they still went ah
I can't believe how quick it was to get in and out. I'm so thankful for the courtesy the staff has showed me each time I come in. I only planned to donate a few times but after having such a pleasant experience I have decided to continue my donations weekly.
Ciara, Brandi, .Michelle, Inayah, Nikki, Giselle, Mari, Alexis are all great hardworking people
This place is okay at times, but the screeners are slow and the process sucks. Makes no sense to me to answer the same questions every time. If I haven't been to the Congo for Ebola why would I keep getting ask the same question just makes no sense. Overall the staff's pretty chill. New people are always being trained and when the staff is wrong your blamed for it not my fault all the people hired are inexperienced to stick people. Honestly I just feel they do more talking than working.
PLEASE DONT WASTE YOUR TIME HERE GO TO ANOTHER PLASMA PLACE. this place is unorganized and very slow, it is not worth the little money they give you. ITS A HUGE WASTE OF TIME. Most of the workers aren't certified OR properly trained. If you value your time and body I suggest to go to another plasma place. other places pay more and are very organized and up to date. I have multiple bad incidents donating here with witnesses but this was my final time coming here and I will proceed to take bigger actions.
A great plasma place located in a very busy part of Atlanta. All of the people who work in the back are great people and it is a teamwork centric environment. Had to take away one star because the wait times can be extended on some days
This is the best place ever, my name is Mr. V.I.P and all the staff know me too. This Mr. Forbes speaking! And angel is sitting up getting on my nerves but I love her ???? ok once again I'm back Kayla and imari took good care of me as always ????????
I just love everybody here. And the staff has been like family to my husband and I, both. We've been donating since 2013, We love John (Upper Mgmnt.) like family too.. Hes been here ever since we 1st started donating. Everyone here is so nice and really makes the donating process pleasant and soooo worthwhile! Bless you Grifols staff and keep saving lives, folks!!! Sincerely, CRB
Been coming to Biom?t for years staff professional. Always get good service with Michelle .
They easily took 883 ml of plasma from my body. Now it gets complicated to pay me my compensation. I got to wait until the next day do all this extra just for them to do their part. Of course I will not be back. I'll go wait in line for 3 hours at BioLife. At least I know I will be compensated.
I have been in the best of hands everytime I go. Laughs and good energy.
Clean location. Very friendly staff who pay attention to details and answer every question. They end up feeling like close friends, you can tell based on interactions.
The new staff were very welcoming and nice . They showed me how to use the app and moved me along quickly
Michelle has been very accommodating in my time here and very personable.
Great place. I've been going here for a year And no problems
I've donated blood plenty of times, plasma a few my first time here took about 3 hours people move here slow second time hit me in way faster but poked my left arm and said ?my arm didn't want to work today? but I've never had a problem with my arms for donation. It looked like someone new was doing it because someone else had to come and poke my other arm then something else went wrong asked me what I've been eating , moved the needle way more than 5 more times. Then someone came with a dehydration sheet
This center is valid they actually know what they doing and most of the staff is friendly and very professional
These girls are lazy. I'm trying to book and she's saying they're booked up but I can tell she was being dishonest. & by the reviews I'm leaning more towards that. Terrible ran business.
Plasma donors can get disqualified for a list of different reasons, which may result in a temporary or a permanent deferral. Common reasons people get a temporary disqualification may include being dehydrated, taking certain medications, getting a tattoo within the last 4 months, or being pregnant in the last 6 months.
Donating plasma can get busy with donors and long waiting times. To donate plasma faster, choose a plasma center that allows you to book an appointment online and take your health screening questionnaire remotely from home. Additionally, call your local plasma center and ask for the least busy days and times of the week.
Most phlebotomists recommend that you take a day off from working out or lifting weights on the same day as your plasma donation. Instead, take the day to rest, eat well, and drink plenty of water after your donation.
Plasma donors are legally capped at two donations per week or 7-day period, with at least 48 hours in between each donation.
Before your plasma donation, it's recommended that you drink plenty of water (4-6 eight-ounce glasses), and eat a meal with high protein and iron content. Avoid drinking alcohol and smoking on the same day as your donation.
