The process of donating plasma at our San Diego plasma donation center usually takes less than an hour to complete for repeat donors. For first-time donors, however, the process is slightly longer due to the required screening process before the procedure. This screening involves a thorough medical history review, a physical examination and a comprehensive health questionnaire. Additionally, donors will be shown a brief video about the impact of plasma donations before the procedure begins.
Generally, the entire process, including screening and donation, takes one to two hours for first-time donors, while subsequent visits for repeat donors are considerably shorter.
Your first visit will involve additional steps before the actual plasma extraction. Upon arrival, our welcoming staff will greet and guide you through the necessary document submission. Next, a thorough screening process will determine your eligibility for donation. Finally, the plasma extraction will take place. Rest assured, compensation for your donation will be provided within 24 hours of plasma extraction.
