After the Octapharma Plasma intake person took my picture and information, he told me I was on the National Donor Deferral Registry (NDDR®). He knew in advance I was going to be banned. A more kinder and business like approach would be to tell me in advance I would not qualify, then ask me to volunteer this information. Also, the intake man did not even give his first name and his name tag was not clearly displayed (lettering was small.)

Terrible management
February 18, 2022

The owner loves good reviews and could care less about us donors. He never responds or tries to fix negative reviews. Still not answering phone.the latina supervisor is a terrible person. Rude and a ugly personality. She should be terminated and never work with people again. If i could give negative stars wpuld give 5... never will return there..

Horrified
February 5, 2022

Absolutely horrified by my experience. I was drained completely of all my blood after an hour so they put a needle in my other arm where they drained me of all fluids until I passed out in the chair. Almost threw up it's been three days still feel sick and my entire arm is purple at their injection site.

Much difference lately
December 21, 2021

First I have been using your facility for approximately 7 years. I very much appreciate the raise in donation pay only to find the without telling us that that we would be donating approximately 200 extra units no extra pay. And when I realized it was taking approximately 1.5 hours longer to donate I expressed my opinion by a employee name Jennifer to just go some where else. My question why are you pushing donors out the door when plasma is in such desperate need.

RECKLESS AT THIS POINT
November 13, 2021

Here's why you have to stop donating at Octapharma plasma. On November 12th of 2021. The company instituted a new donor withdrawal requirement. Instead of donating the usual amount. They are now taking more plasma. In other words, I generally donate 800ML's of plasma per sitting. I learned, they are now taking an additional 190ML's. This makes the combined withdrawal 990ML's. This is nothing short of greed. This is completely unsafe. They take plasma to use as proteins. These proteins are needed for Amino acids. Amino acids are vital for Metabolic reactions in the body. Let's back up even before that. To replace any fluid loss. The heart and kidneys have to work that much HARDER to replenish this volume loss. If you have an UNDIAGNOSED heart condition. This will compound your Cardiac condition. To what extent? I'm don't know. Everyone is different. ALL, I'M SAYING IS STOP DONATING AT OCTAPHARMA PLASMA. They try to sell you on saving lives. My question to you is. Who will save your life because of this? I will never go back there. IT'S NOT SAFE. It's day 2 for me POST donation. I've rehydrated, eat healthy and workout. I'm STILL NOT AT 100%

THEY DON'T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT YOU. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE PLEASE.
