They are a very busy center and it can get crowded at times, the best time to come is early in the morning.

Uniqueness:
They are the only center in Las Vegas that does both whole blood and plasma. Found out something interesting here. If you give blood you can switch over to giving plasma and switch back. But if you start out giving plasma and then switch to blood you canβt switch back to plasma. You are not allowed to give both plasma and blood.
