Over the past 5 years I've had almost no complaints - and I've been seen by optometry dental mental health family practice emergency dept physical therapy pharmacy and radiology.

The staff went above and beyond from my primary Dr Patel to the nuero and surgical team who discovered and corrected my carotid artery. The scheduling staff were also the most dynamic as pre op procedures had to be adjusted accordingly. My thanks to the best VA in America!!

What do you expect. No one wants to live around here so you're never going to find a doctor that cares here. They're here for the benifits... that's it. It's easier to send you home with random medication than it is to care about your health.
