I was a little worried because a lot of reviews mentioned very long wait time, but this was the fastest and most straightforward donation experience I’ve ever had (went late on a weeknight, so maybe it’s worse on weekends??) and the staff was fantastic 😊 Definitely will come back!!

The person responsible for scheduling appointments at this location should lose their job. I had an appointment and when I arrived I was told the wait time would be up to an hour after my scheduled appointment. Extremely unprofessional and uncoordinated staff. The queue system is miserable, nobody knows who's up next to have their vitals checked before donating. My universal donor blood will never come back to this location. Do yourself a favor and save yourself the time and energy it takes to work with this donation center. There are probably other better donation centers in the city.

NY Blood center has a donor points program that can convert to gift cards, NYBC swag, or other catalog items. Platelet donors (who are allowed to donate every 7 days), also can get extra points for meeting donation challenges.

They're very good here. For whole blood you'll be there for less than an hour. But if you have time you should consider donating platelets.

You just have to go in. As long as you are in good health you should be able to donate. For blood you can donate about once every 8 weeks or so. For platelets every 7 days

They don't buy plasma. There is a rewards program where you earn points with donations and then they can be redeemed for different things
