Very friendly staff, kindness shows & that goes a long way. Pretty prompt service, but patience is needed at times. Pay is always no longer than 30 minutes & once was almost instant. As a side note, who likes needle sticks? They are always gentle. I highly recommend this Sparks location!! Also, they have random opportunities to earn more! I'd like to see more of them! ;)
I have to say I have donated at 10+ centers across the USA as I travel with my husband for his work. This was BY FAR the ABSOLUTE BEST EXPERIENCE for the 1st time donation at a new center. It has taken upwards of 4-5 hours everywhere else so I showed up at 7am. I was out the door by 8:35am. Friendly, efficient, professional. ALL AROUND THE BEST and I have been donating since 2018. Thank you so much!
The staff here is great and efficient. They take great care of each patient and go out of their way to ensure your safety. I truly recommend to anyone that is capable of donating plasma to do so. It not only saves lives but you can also receive a nice cash benefit from doing a service to your fellow human family.
I've been donating plasma at Grifols Biomat in Sparks for several months now?and previously donated for almost four months before the 2020 lockdown. My experience has been consistently positive. The staff is professional, friendly, and efficient, and the process is well-organized. Your first visit does take a bit longer due to screening and setup, but once you're in the system, each donation goes pretty quickly. They do a great job of keeping things moving, and the team makes you feel comfortable throughou
The staff here is amazing! My veins are difficult to stick, but Ryan and Kaylee are pros! Would recommend this center to anyone.
I've been coming here for a couple of years now and I can't say enough great things about the team! Everyone is so nice and pleasant, they always remember my name and greet me when I come in! I feel very cared for here and have an amazing experience everytime. I've been to other plasma donation facilities that have crazy wait times, rude employees, and inefficient machines and I have never had a problem with any of those things here. Lisa, Taylor, Tatum, Yesenia, assistant manager Scott and everyone else on
Anna is the best at ?milking my finger? my hands are always cold but she can always get the appropriate amount of blood out for screening! All of the staff are wonderful I've been donating here for almost two year and would never change centers!! ??
Highly recommended donation center. Full of friendly faces as well as a very clean and comfortable setting. Valentina is Excellent! Along with the rest of the staff. Would not donate anywhere else.
Professional and personable staff that does an amazing job taking care of your time donating. Anything that may arise, they are well trained and make folks feel comfortable and safe. They sincerely also appreciate the donations and your time.
Been coming here 2 years. Never had a single problem. Everyone is great, Taylor, Anna, Tiffany, and Austin to name a few. Great promos to bring you in for extra cash too.
Everyone here is so friendly and caring. They make me feel like a person and not just a blood bag. Very attentive, quick, and professional!
The over all experience has been very easy and professional! Everyone here is amazing! Definitely will be my go to donation center!
I have donated plasma many times in my life. The biomat team is so friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable it makes donations easy and timely. You save a life and they pay you. You know you're on TikTok for an hour after work anyway-why not get paid?
Always a good experience when I come in and donate. Staff if kind, helpful and well knowledgeable in explaining. Loved winning the Ninja grill too!!!
I love this place! People are very welcoming and always willing to help out. I would definitely recommend this anyone who's wants to donate plasma. 4.5
This place is always clean, staff are friendly, and I always have a pleasant experience. I like how I can make an appointment here vs other places where it's like pulling a deli ticket. They stock the front with waters and snacks if you ask too and i appreciate the professionalism from everyone I've met there.
Good people don't to talk to and always make sure that there donors are safe and happy. I just love the atmosphere and I have been donating for 4 years.
I have yet to experience a bad experience at Grifols. The employees have been so helpful and kind. I obviously have my favorite few Tattum is my all time favorite and I have a few others as well. I feel like the people I have met and got to know here are wonderful and very qualified to be in this industry.
Friendly staff, they always remember my name. place is clean and process is quick
I have been coming consistently for a month and have had a great experience. The staff are great and get things done quickly.
Been coming here for a few months now and the staff is always so professional and welcoming. Always greeting me by name and regularly checking in to make sure everything is okay. The one occasion there was a discrepancy with my needle, staff was attentive, noticed it immediately and fixed it. It gets busy sometimes but I believe they prioritize appointments which makes it very convenient and shortens the wait by a whole lot.
The donation process has gone fine all 3 times I have gone to this location. Friendly staff, extremely efficient at the whole process. The facility is clean.... My issue has been when it comes to the compensation. Of the 3 times I have donated here, I have to call after the fact to get my payout corrected (I was under compensated according to their charts for standard compensation and bonuses). My suggestion is to absolutely check your card portal before you take off EVERY SINGLE TIME to ensure your payout
I've been going to biomat since I moved to reno in 2017. I have seen them improve each year with trying to make donation appointments more time efficient and they really do take the time to just make your overall experience as comfortable as possible.
They are very professional and kind every week I donate. They are always doing promotional stuff for you to earn some extra cash as well! - Brad
This was a great place to donate at. Staff was very helpful and the whole process went quicker than other places. Highly recommend !
This is Jazzman Ford. Just coming on to say I love the Sparks location and all the staff. This is definitely the plasma place to be.
Super friendly and well trained staff. Didn't hurt and was very quick .
Anna is a amazing she asks me constantly about my caffeine intake and my well being. She keeps thing entertaining. She is professional and is great at answering questions and concerns. Great place to donate. I've been to other plasma places this is the spot.
Austin is a very knowledgeable person. He has very good people skills. I would return again. Yesenia is hands down the best what she does.
A great experience every time. The team handles me with care and always explains what they're doing. Thank you guys!
All of the staff especially Tiffany from medical is so nice. Overall smooth experience.
Started coming here recently. Much cleaner than other places in town. Staff are knowledgeable and kind.
Best plasma place hands down Yesenia and Mike were the best. Best treatment I've had in a while, facilities where clean and nice the staff was really helpful and they helped me understand everything during my pre screening and really explained in depth how my compensation worked Will definitely refer friends here
Had a great experience for my first visit. Got through the process fairly quick.
Hands down the best place to donate Plasma in Reno. I have been donating at this location for a year. The staff are all so friendly, and professional. Everyone from up front staff to the phlebotomists in the back, everyone cares about your well being. Tiffany up front is so sweet and friendly. She genuinely cares about your experience and safety during donating. The Grifols app make it so easy to make and change appointments and fill out health questionnaires. It's a breeze. I appreciate all the staff here
Great staff and skilled technicians. Always great to see Tiffany's face first thing when I come in.
The staff here is great lluvia and lizette looks so much alike they can be sisters!
I am amending my five star review from two days ago down to one star. I donated plasma here two days ago. At that time, I had mentioned during the pre-screening that I had previously had three types of skin cancer (2009). I was allowed to move forward with the process. When going back today, I was told that one type of skin cancer is a permanent deferral, making me ineligible for donating. Several sources online indicate that after a 1-5 year waiting period, I should be eligible. Regardless, I should have
The people at the location in sparks are always so friendly and welcoming. The process always is quick and easy. They even make it to where you feel like part of the team. Love it here.
Would give it 10 stars if I could . Austin was awesome! Great place don't go anywhere to donate the staff is amazing!
Thanks so much for helping me feel comfortable and very welcome my first time Jonathan!
Very friendly staff and very quick process I have yet to experience anything bad here at grifols in the year I've been coming
John, Yesenia were very great! Had a wonderful experience! Awesome staff! Definitely recommend going to Grifols!
Awesome people very fast service and they compensate you for your donation pretty well
Anna up front is the best. Super careful and takes good care of you. Everyone in the back works hard to get you in and out. Great place.
This is a fantastic place if you want to make easy extra cash per week. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable with any and all questions . It's also very clean
I've been coming to this center for awhile now and thought I'd finally leave a review. Staff is nice and welcoming always greeting you by name. Anna is the best at finger pricks ! Although they never really hurt I hardly feel a thing when she does it. 5 stars for this GRIFOLS center ????
I have donated for other centers over the last couple of years and this one is the best! The staff has always been friendly and are the best when it comes to hooking you up for your donation. I would give more than 5 stars if I could.
Anna is my favorite, she's personable, kind, and always in a good mood. I've had great experiences with all thr staff at Grifols, but Anna is a stand-out!
I have been coming to the Sparks location for about 6yrs. It's been a wonderful experience from the staff (even the newbies) being friendly and happy go lucky to the process of donating. This place has more ups than downs. I left for about a year to try another location and came back .. Should never had left. Keep up the great work!
I just started donating again this past few weeks. I really enjoy this staff, from front to back office. Everyone is friendly, kind, understanding, and very skilled. I'm glad I chose this location to visit often. Keep up the great work guys!! Beth Thanas
Decided to come back after 4 months. Told me I needed a physical done even though I got one done in October, because I missed a blood sample. Cool. Came back a couple of days later for the physical only to be sent home because they needed a physical copy of my personal information again like they did in the beginning. That could have been explained the first time I came. It would have been nice to know exactly what they needed for me so that I wouldn't waste my gas and time. Please be more informative with
Excellent service. Scott is the best one there.
This place is the best, everyone is super friendly and helpful, you can tell they really care here. 10/10 will always come back
I was pretty nervous when I began donating, but everyone here is so friendly and make it a comfortable experience. And they learn how to stick your veins better so it's way less painful after about your 3rd time there. For new donors I'd recommend bringing a blanket if you get cold and something to squeeze like a roll of socks. They do offer grips here but they hurt my hands after a while cause I'm not that strong. :)
Oz was there phlebotomist who helped me donate today. He was competent, friendly, and I barely felt the poke! I enjoy coming to this location to donate - everyone is nice and everything runs so efficiently. The are very attentive and address any issues quickly. Highly recommend!
I love coming in to donate at this location. The staff is always fun and cheerful. They have good vibes and are always doing their best. I've never had a bad experience. Keep up the good work guys!
Always upholding that customer care , very respectful team they have Here been going here for 3 years
Just had a wonderful experience with one of their employees Anna who was super kind and always has with a great attitude when I see her. 5 stars just for that experience alone.
Thank you Ryan; for making my vein pop! I now have a marble size bubble in my vein!! Most of the "Staff" are kids; who are just learning, have no experience, and do not care about their work or the people that plan on donating. Be careful with who you trust your body with. I Would definitely NOT recommend this location. The older staff seem to not care anymore either. This place should probably be shut down.
Grifols treats donators with respect. They are always smiling and willing to answer any questions you may have. The waiting area has chairs to sit in so your feet don't hurt and they do appointments.
This place is awesome best place I've ever been to In My Life!
There amazing at what they do love going here staff are great
These guys are so kind! I actually look forward to seeing them and saying hi to all the fabulous employees! Oz is the master poker, tattem is always smiling, Austin answers all of my questions! Seriously, they have the best staff!
I've been going here since mid October of last year. My first time donating they were very welcoming and talked to me thoroughly about what happens. Ever since then I've only got to this plasma center. It's quick and easy money. All of the employees are so sweet and friendly.
Kristel poked me today and she was awesome. Didn't feel a thing. This center is great, everyone is so nice and very good at their job. Gotta shout out to Oz too, he is always so uplifting and in a good mood. Would definitely recommend this center for plasma.
Best donation center in Reno! Zoe was very helpful with intake. Everyone in the back was great especially Yesenia! Very comfortable setting and vibe.
This is the best location hands down, great service everytime and everybody is really nice & friendly, I highly recommend.
Best staff around!!! My sister and I both donate here and we have always have had great experiences since the moment we walk in the door. We have donated at other locations in town and have had unpleasant experiences. If you are thinking about donating plasma, definitely choose Grifols Biomat!!
The staff is so friendly here and gentle I would refer everyone to come here
Great staff and a fantastic place to make some extra money
Zoe is always amazing every time I see her Tatum is always so welcoming and friendly Aman is wonderful and always so prompt in his work. I enjoy coming back every time.
I started donating plasma about 1 year ago. This has been the best decision ever! I have a few family members that depend on plasma to live a semi normal life. The compensation is just an added bonus. I have met the most wonderful people there. Tiffany made me feel so calm with the starting process, Taylor, Tatum, John, Eileen, Maneet, Austin and of course my girl ZOE are the best! Thank you for all you do!
The only donation center with constant good quality service!!!!! Thank you all for all that you do??
All staff are so kind and very professional. Facility is very clean
They are extremely professional! The 3 reasons I donate. 1- helping people 2- helps me to stay somewhat in shape as well. 3- helping our house hold budget ????
Awesome staff , very helpful and nice would highly recommend this place to everyone
This place is a great staple in the neighborhood to have. It's not only helping me in between payday but it helps with our communitys health and medication needs. The staff is always welcoming and friendly. I definitely adore Anna a bit more tho, I'm always excited to see her smiling face when I come into donate. She is so plesent and makes me laugh everytime. I highly recommend this center, if your looking for some quick cash and friendly faces.
Long time donor and every time is a pleasant experience. Thank you to Zoe for her constant excellent and positive attitude towards donors. Everybody else is great too. Never had a bad phlebotomist.
Really professional, kind and welcoming would visit again
Very smooth. Never has to wait long to get started so your in and out in no time. Friendly and helpful staff makes the experience comfortable and relaxing.
I love Griffolds and their staff they're amazing
I WENT INSIDE TO HELP MY HUSBAND (whom has a comprehension disorder) READ HIS PAPER WORK AND REMIND HIM OF HIS BIRTHDAY SO HE COULD ANSWER HIS QUESTIONS CORRECTLY AND THE CHINESE LADY HERE TOLD ME THAT I WASN'T NEEDED AND HE NEEDED TO DO THE PAPERWORK BY HIMSELF THAT IM HIS WIFE NOT HIS MOTHER EXCUSE ME BUT AS HIS WIFE IT IS MY RESPONSIBILITY TO HELP HIM AND TAKE CARE OF HIM AS NEEDED DO NOT EVER TELL ME IM JUST THE WIFE I MAY BE BUT ITS MY JOB TO HELP HIM NOT HERS OR ANYONE ELSES THIS LADY NEEDS TO BE FIRE
Excellent place to donate plasma. Oz is the best with customer service and bedside manner. He takes care of my family when they go to donate their plasma for a good cause. I do recommend this center to anybody who wants to donate.
This is my 8th donation here and it's always been a pleasure. Every single person I've met here has always been professional and love what they do. I had Zoe today, wonderful person. Smooth needle insertion and great conversationalist. This is the only biomat I'll go to. Thank you all for what you do.
Zoe is the best! Always have the best staff here!
Anna is the BEST..! Always happy & makes my day.! Hard worker, very efficient even when it's super busy.
Come in as often as I can, and each time I come in, it's quick and easy with a nice atmosphere all around. Zoe has been my go to due to how amazing her sticks are time and time again, don't even feel it and it's a smooth donation.
The staff here is beyond amazing and they make each donation easy and enjoyable! Very clean facility and fast donation times. I would highly recommend this location to anyone! Shout out to Zoe, she's amazing!
Every time I come here I have a good time. Everyone is laughing, cracking jokes, and having a good time. Leilani always has a good joke and a great smile
Ana is the best, super sweet and professional up front and the phlebotomist team in the morning when I come in is always great. My favorite center to donate at.
Such a great location with the most amazing staff! The facility is clean, I always feel comfortable going here, and the staff is literally the most friendly and helpful people you could talk to.
Their technicians complain about management and talk poorly of other employees in front of clients. The new hires cannot stick my vein that has been good enough for donating off and on for years. I stopped my last donation because it was painful after they missed and another new hire missed last time as well. I'm not a practice dummy and I have never had a vein that ?rolled? before. Now I'm deferred for a vein check every time I go, aka for them to turn me away and waste my time and gas. I wouldn't recommen
I reached a milestone: 60+ donations at my Sparks plasma center and..... absolutely it is quite relevant for me having a consistently wonderful, friendly, courteous, and skillfully trained staff, each and everytime.
Been here for years best staff. Always timely and efficient. Make sure you have at least an hour of free time it's still a medical procedure you can only go as fast as the machine will allow. Staff has no control over total procedure time. Ask for Zoe!
Staff is super helpful, I really enjoy donating at the Sparks center because the staff is attentive and ensures your donation goes smoothly.
Staff including managers are pretentious and negligent. Austin the clerk boy (says he's the higher up) is very un-helpful. He just shunned me away while being high as a kite. Stay away from this cesspool of idiots who call themselves Medical Professionals. Very embarrassing
Took Great care of me while I was there :)
Tatum & Paulina are super rad. They make donating super easy and fun.
Everyone that works here is extremely professional, friendly, kind, knowledgeable, experienced. Although donating plasma is not the most pleasant thing to do, the staff here is always welcoming and friendly and I have not had a bad experience yet. I will continue to donate plasma, because the employees are so nice. The donation area is very clean and you feel comfortable with your surroundings.
The staff here is great! Always polite with a smile. They always make sure I am comfortable. My first visit was fairly long, but that is because getting all my info and the physical. Every visit after I have been out in less than a hour.
Tiffany is a wonderful CMS and knows her job well.
The staff at Biomat is extremely courteous and friendly. I went in to donate and they were able to get me in quickly and the process was extremely efficient. The staff was very welcoming which made the process that much better. I have been to other centers in the area and they just don't compare.
Been coming here for quite sometime now and I love it. The staff is so nice and very attentive. They move fast so my appointments only last about an hour if that. The facility is so clean and welcoming I look forward to my appointments twice a week, getting to relax for an hour and help others.
Anna is the best , Austin always killing it in the front and the rest of the team like always ?????? love donating plasma
The people are extraordinary, nice and understanding. They do care a lot about each donor that walks through their door. My significant other and I couldn't have been anymore grateful for what they do.
It was my first time coming here and I fainted but when I woke up they were there to help me by putting cool packs on my chest and neck, checking my blood pressure, giving me Gatorade and a granola bar, and turning a fan on. The staff was so nice and I had a great first experience even though I fainted and could donate
Great experience! Very professional and respectful. Tatum and staff are Awesome and friendly!
Best plasma center in the American Southwest. 10/10
I have been here twice now and both times my experience has been great. The staff are very nice and helpful. They do their best to get you in and out quickly while also making sure you're taken care of during your visit.
Best facility I've ever been!
I have been donating plasma at Grifols (Sparks) since 2018 and will continue to do so. I know many of the staff at this point and everyone is very friendly and know me as well. It's nice to be recognized. Donating plasma is truly a win win because you help save lives and get paid for doing it. I highly recommend this location because of the great client service and welcoming environment. Feels great to know that I am helping save a life!
I come here to decompress after work as my one and half hour of ?me? time before the chaos I have to deal with at home. The staff are so nice and friendly from the moment you walk in. Scott at the front desk is always so friendly and welcoming. If you're gonna request someone to draw you or if you're a new donor who's decided to start donating at this location, I highly suggest Aman, Justine, Anna or Marina. These 3 are probably the friendliest staff here that I always encounter with. I always feel like I?
I have been donating off and on for the past 4 years at this site. Knowledgeable staff that are always friendly, fast and efficient at what they do. Its a clean and comfortable environment. It makes giving back enjoyable. 5 stars for my Sparks Biomat.
The people here are so awesome, Gabe, Oz, Tate, Austin and Ryan are the best and coming here has no negativity, Everytime I come in always so nice to me and other customers the staff is very friendly and helpful
Yesterday it was mine and my husband's first time donating plasma. Everyone there is very thorough and friendly. While my husband's donation went smoothly, mine unfortunately did not. I had a reaction to donating plasma where it caused my whole body to cramp up. Tiffany, the young man, and the other two young ladies were very quick to get me to feeling better and get my body to somewhat go back to normal. All four of them worked together flawlessly and I have to give 5 stars because I am so thankful for eve
Very clean. Staff is great. I love the fact that I can request a certain person to do the draw. Not sure if I like the whole appointment thing now. Yes it is faster but sometimes I am so busy and when in the area I like to just stop by. The new girl Kenedee is awesome!
Everybody here is super fantastic. They're always good to get a good laugh, They're all very professional and precise phlebotomists and I smile every time I donate here
Anna is freaking amazing and always wanting to help and have a good day....too bad she's taken or I would be asking her out
Anna is awesome every time I go in. Me and her always laugh when I show up
I was actually kinda scared to donate after my first encounter with grifols on 7th Street, I've been coming to this center for over a year now and they are really awesome, Laney,Ashley, Joe,Austin,Aman are the best they actually care and show it. If you want to Donate Plasma this is the place to go. Thanks you guys your Awesome;;!! Everyone there is always so welcoming and Positive always smiling and in a good mood, very contagious I always leave with a ??
I come here twice a week and everyone treats you well in a professional way. I hope to soon start working here because I really like all the employees. Come here to donate! The sparks office is my favorite place they are fast too!
Super easy, very comfortable, definitely recommend
Very clean, a efficient all professional & kind
This center is great! The staff are friendly and always cheerful. They make the process so easy and as enjoyable as possible!
Posted new donor amounts are deceiving. If you have donated EVER even more than 20 years ago you are not considered a "new donor" but a returning new donor so the posted payments do not apply and this was NEVER mentioned during my first visit. Never returning if they are deceiving on this what more shady stuff do they do?
Everyone works great as a team keep up the great service
The crew here makes your visit so enjoyable!!! Even take the time to Know you personally!! Quick way to make a few bucks, while doing something good!!
So disappointed was running behind to an appointment the person who picked up the phone was very friendly tells me I can arrive by 7 before they close I'm walking to the doors I can see them being locked at 6:58 I call right at 7 to ask if they can open the door for me if u take into consideration the time that took get threw on the phone u have to listen to prompts so i had to of been calling before 7 when I started calling the person who answers tells me I'm lieing that they lock the doors at 7 I said it
The staff are AMAZING! Kristel is always so friendly and sweet. Makes donating here comfortable and a breeze.
The staff here is friendly and professional. They also know how to stick you without leaving big bruises, unlike CSL (in my experience). They use very fast newer machines which, combined with "by appointment only" scheduling, gets you in and out as efficiently as possible. I just wish they'd open up in South Reno too
Biomat Sparks is the best! The friendly staff is always welcoming and all seem to enjoy their job. Wait times are short and the facility is always clean. Its also great that they do bonuses ans promotions to keep return donors satisfied!
The staff is super friendly. They really make you feel like you matter They will joke around with you and make you feel at ease. Daisy is so good and we always chit chat. Great place. Very clean.
Marina has been by far the most professional and real people I've been assisted by. Has answered every question I've had. Has made the process feel smooth. They have an exceptional catering to clients and I highly recommend this center above all.
Kristal was amazing as always. Love everyone here. Super friendly and very good at there jobs!
I have always had good experiences here the facility is very clean and staff is always friendly
99% of the time, the staff and speed are top notch. However when it's slammed or short staffed, it's not fun. Out of the 8 months of donating, I've had 3 total issues donating twice/week. Otherwise it's a solid location with awesome staff.
Everyone is super kind and helpful. They keep things very clean and professional. The whole process doesn't take long and they all do their best to make your comfort their number one priority. Daisy and Rob are exceptional and go above and beyond for their clients. They really care and it shows
I always get respected and enjoy my visits
Been a donor for nearly 20 years. This center at Prater/McCarran in Sparks is clean, efficient, and staffed with a great team of friendly associates. Always on time, never have to wait. Overall great donor experience,
Scott is super helpful and Gary is also. I appreciate this place for being super professional about how they do things. I will recommend more people to go here again.
Sparks Biomat is a great place to donate! With a clean center, friendly staff, and an overall positive environment! Thank you sparks Biomat
Everyone is always so friendly and happy when I go in. comfortable environment. Shout out to OZ who always has great energy every time I go in
Been donating here for years and not once have I been eaten by vampires, nor experienced lifelong trauma. It's a great place to give plasma to the plasma god. For real, super friendly staff, easy to handle doing, and no, and I stress, no evil vampires on site.
I have been coming here for years and it is slowly getting worse and worse every time I come here. It used to take 45 minutes to donate, but now it's pushing 2 hours every time. The nurse is constantly telling I can't donate because I have a non existent bruise or the slightest eczema on my arm that you can't even see. It's an allergy that can't be controlled., but apparently I can't donate plasma because if it. Every time I take the protein test, it takes over 2 weeks for them to release me so I can donate
This is by far the best Plasma Center in the area. Grifols Biomat employees are very knowledgeable, and professional!
I've been coming to this plasma donation center for a few years now and based on my experience from other plasma donation centers that I've never gone to I've got to say this is the best one. Always clean, the employees are always helpful and nice and the money is just an added bonus! Also Scott is the best
Love them!! Tiffany that does the physicals is the best best! So wonderful
Best plasma experience I have had in Sparks. Clean, efficient, friendly and they are gentle with the needle! Will not be going anywhere else.
Friendly and fast for my first appointment
I've been coming to Biomat since 2007, and to the Sparks location for two years now. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend coming to this location if you're looking into donating plasma and make a little extra $$$ in the process!!
The staff is always friendly, the only issue I have is the getting paid part. When Amahn is working the lab I get paid within 15 minutes of finishing, it's been an hour since I left today and I was the last person in the center, why is it so hard today get paid? I know its not because there are other bottles to process because it was slow, i dont understand the hold up just like your company would like our plasma, we would like our money. I now have been waiting for 2hrs and 45min to get paid, I now give a
I'd love to donate but when you make new donors wait 2 hours or more to start, on top of a 2 1/2-3 hour donation, how is anyone supposed to? Either let new people make appointments or hire people to accommodate. Completely unprofessional, go ANYWHERE else if you're trying to donate.
A very pleasant experience, and super easy! The donation process was explained clearly and handled precisely! The clinic very was clean, to say the least. No need to drive all the way to C.C at all!
The staff at Sparks Biomat rock. It's always a great time talking to Daisy and the rest of the staff. Daisy makes sure to get the job done. The things I dislike is the pay, it's lower than other centers. It fluctuates at times depending on the month. They took away the referral bonuses. Other than that this place rocks.
Always pleasant place to go! It's like Cheers, where everyone knows your name...but no beer. Very clean and nice, did I say already say nice? Love the staff!
Everybody was really kind and helpful. The facility is very clean and welcoming. It really felt like everyone enjoyed being there. I'm so glad I chose this facility to start donating.
Zoe is such a great employee always happy always checking to see if your okay while donating. Best place ever
This place has an awesome staff, the one lady with hoop earrings is a little "picante" and always causing a ruckus. Aimee is spot on even though she won't stab my arm like a dartboard. They also refuse blood if you bring your own. They ask alot of questions like who's is it, where'd you get it, or why is it in a home depot bucket. I wanted to do a raffle to see who could do the best job blindfolded but for some reason they said they can't do it. There's also a guy that works there that's addicted to Crunk J
Great place to donate. The staff is also very enjoyable to talk with.
Great and Friendly staff, Yesenia Faby, Raul, and Noah, to just name a few, are great! I enjoy coming in and chillin' for about an hour. And the many times I've gone to donate, I've never been a 're-stick'. Which is a big deal for me.
Super easy process from day one. There's never a line they maintain the facility clean. They offer free water bottles incase you had a long work day. Cheanette is always checking up on donors and always has a fun light conversation to make the process smother than what it already is. Thank you guys for all you do!!!
Always professional. Sometimes it gets busy but these folks can rival costco for efficiency and concern. Like getting a mini physical every time. Monthly incentives are the icing on the cake. With the staff changes I was worried I wouldn't see familiar faces but thankfully Rob, Daisy, Tiara and Leilani were still here. I love chit chatting with the front line people as well. Everybody is great. Las vegas people are helpful as well.
I've never had a bad experience donating here! The facility is clean, and the staff is very friendly and approachable. If you're thinking about donating your plasma, this is the best option in Northern Nevada.
Been coming here for years. Hell yeah I have!! Friendly staff to greet you as you come in. Thank you Tiffany! Excellent screening from Mike. Very welcoming, and well trained staff like Aman and Emberly!! Thank you guys!!
Always hear donating plasma , very helpful and friendly staff they always make me feel welcomed and comfortable. Will continue coming here!
Always nice and friendly. It's a great place to go to help out and make some some money too!
I am giving a 5-star rating only because of the amazing phlebotomist that helped me today. His name is Noah he's from Las Vegas but he flew into Reno to help out the Sparks location because they are under staffed. It was such a pleasure to have such a kind warm-hearted person to work with. I have been a donor for a long time at both the Reno location and the Sparks location and I must tell you he has the best customer service skills ever. I would hope that the Sparks location would take advantage of this a
I just LOVE the staff at the Sparks Biomat! They are always considerate, compassionate, friendly and knowlegable. The location is great and the payouts good.
The Biomat in sparks is great, it's very clean and the staff is very friendly and great to talk to. I really enjoy my visits.
This place is amazing my favorite tech is daisy she is amazing super informative about all questions you may have.Always makes you feel comfortable and always in a wonderful mood! Thank you daisy for always making my donating experience a great one!
I have been donating here for a year now. The staff are amazing and everything is streamlined to make the experience much quicker then where i used to donate in the past. Never a long wait and is completely worth your time!
So I went in for my first visit and when they went to put the needle in the guy could not get it. He begins to root around in my vein with the needle and then finally calls over someone else to help. This other guy comes over and continues to root around and then says "oops I went all the way through your vein". I was obviously unable to donate that day and when I got home a HUGE bruise began to form. When the bruise finally went away about 2 weeks later I went back and was told that I would need to go thro
Super nice staff. Easy process
Kristel, Aman and Ryan always take great care of me. Love this donation center
The people here are very professional and very nice. They are well trained. Nicole, Diana, Daisy and Eric are wonderful. Great at their job. They make it fun.
I come here 1-2 times a week. The employees are wonderful and the place is very clean. Donating plasma is a great way to help others and make a few dollars in the process.
Great Place friendly staff been coming here for about a year. Come down and see Oz for your donation great dude!
Staffs are friendly however my arm they withdrew plasma from got bruises so I came back. They claim that I'm the only person who ever received bruises! They said it's fine and their wanting to actually withdraw more from me with the same arm that's currently bruised up!!!
I always have a pleasant visit at this facility. The staff is super friendly and make it enjoyable. I love the bonuses they offer at random times.
Awesome phlebotomist! Friendly and plays great music ??
Staff is Very rude!! horrible experience do not recommend. Tried to come donate a couple of times waiting all day long for them to make up some excuse up that I'm not able to donate
I may have small veins, but I've never left a doctor's office bruised with a pint of blood unable to return. The phlebotomist told me she had only been working there for two months and she was the most experienced person on the floor yet she bruised me in both arms and unable to donate for 8 weeks because of her. Seems like employees don't stay here long as I can never have the same phlebotomist each visit.
I have made over 500 donations at this location and continue to look forward to my appointments twice a week. I love the clean facilities and welcoming staff.
everyone did a real good job
I absolutely love donating here! It's the best 2 hours of my week. I feel so welcome by everyone here. Marina and Daisy are the best!!!!!
my entire experience was quick and easy The ?first time? donor process is always said to be extremely long But in just shy of two hours I was checked and accepted into the donor system and donated! It was quick and easy and just in time for some Christmas money!
Great place to get some extra $$$ for gas, you donate twice in a week and get $110. Staff are very friendly and make you feel welcomed always.

I've been donating here for a few months now and I love it here. Staff is always very friendly and helpful. Definitely a great place to go to donate.
Very helpful, very nice recommended!
Staff attempt to be friendly and really they are but they are ill trained when it come to the knowledge of their processes and customer service in general. If you ask a question or attempt I understand further and they don't know they will give you a bs answer and attempt to shoo you away. They lack the understanding how this could upset a person who is having an invasive procedure completed and wants to know/ understand all the details/ steps/changes How the changes will effect you or the process. So at an
These people are absolutely amazing. I love coming here to donate. They are very professional, and yet full of personality. Great team.
Always friendly and courteous staff , OZ Does an excellent job and is always quick and efficient !
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.
