Both my husband and I are younger veterans new to the area requesting VA care. We have been here four weeks with multiple interactions in this clinic. This is very limited parking in the mornings, and none on Monday orientation days. The lab tech drew blood from my husband without changing gloves from the previous patient or checking what labs were needed (so my husband had to give more blood samples after meeting with his doctor). It's taken my husband four weeks and calling/getting hung up on/transferred to nurses/pharmacists and admin to get refills for his blood pressure meds and blood thinners. The lab threw away my sample despite a lab order from my doctor requesting samples, delaying my cultures because I had to go back two days later, and now I cannot get my doctor's nurse to call me back on what the samples showed and how I am suppose to address my elevated white blood count/blood in my urine. It's some sort of infection, made more alarming by the fact that I'm 10 weeks pregnant. I was referred to choice program for maternity care, and trying to get my first appointment (which they have to schedule) is like pulling teeth. It's just been a terrible, terrible experience, and very frustrating for veterans seeking care. It really seems like no one cares about us there. My husband and I transferred from the Minneapolis VA, which was pretty good, so that's our basis of comparison.
was my PA and she was very pleasant and thorough, showing a high degree of professionalism. I am looking forward to seeing her on my next visit.
The staff here are generally great, but DO NOT try to call anyone at the facility that you do not have a direct extension for, you will literally waste HOURS of your day!!!! I have had to actually drive tot the clinic as I could not get to the department or person on several occasions. I find this hard to believe in 2017!!!
