My replacement corneas had fallen into the bottom of my eye. Dr. Scruggs not only removed it she also replaced it with a new type that shouldn't fall out. I now see 20/20. Excellent care . Great Staff.
Parking is a bit tight but I always find a place.
Nice Staff!
Great coffee shop mid lobby! Tasty apple cinnamon muffins. …
since being diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer this has been my place to go.
i was transferred to a new primary who cares about me and gives me as much time as i need during appts. …
Thank you all who have taken good care of me for the last 4 years. From the staff in the emergency room. 4-6 visits there. The eye care team. Miles in Prosthetics my Endocrinologist and to the great one Dr. Scalapino in Rheumatology. The …
Top.
The people here are always very kind and thoughtful and do a great job. …
When I'm @ Portland or Vancouver VA the staff is exceptional & kind I'm fortunate & thankful to the Er Dr's & nurse's
I can't say enough about this hospital! They literally saved my husband's life! The doctors were incredible---extremely knowledgeable technologically innovative and extremely caring! The nurses were also amazing and there were so many who …
I can't say enough good things about this place. They're overworked understaffed and underpaid yet they somehow manage to give great health care. I've gone to their sleep clinic for my CPAP and to the ER a couple of times for various problems. Also the pharmacy is superb.
I can't speak for other VA hospitals but this one is chock full of rock stars. I would be dead if it wasn't for them. I have never had a bad experience. I lived 3 hours away and would drive past 6 hospitals to get there. I finally moved to …
I have a long-term illness and I was diagnosed in 2000 it is 2021 people with my disease normally die within 10 years. They have diagnosed monitored taught me the steps to live longer. And I outlived all the studies by 10 years. The …
I have always received excellent care at this Medical Center. I have never been treated without respect from all staff. I have seen more often then one would expect patients being disrespectful to staff which is sad because the staff is there for you.
I’ve been going to the VA hospital since 2011 and have always been treated well by the doctors and Nurses.
I've had the VA as my primary HealthCare provider for over 15 years now. I have "NEVER" had a problem with any VA provider! In fact the list of healthcare providers that has been good to me is very long and prestigious. All have been very professional caring and helpful. Thank you to all who have cared for me!!!
My appts. have all been timely. Grace in pre-op was so helpful and delivered 1st class patient treatment. Lori in Post-op did such a great job helping me to recuperate. KUDOS! Portland VA!
My husband had 2 appointments
back to back. A few minutes late for the 1st one but not enough to delay f/u with Doctor. The staff in both departments were very helpful friendly and …
My wife and I are veterans and we are grateful for the service provided by this facility. They have addresses many of our health issues. The staff is great all things considered and I can see they work very hard especially through the …
A lot better then any of the other VA Hospitals I have been too. Its very up to date and clean. Everyone loves my best friend (Dog) Ammo Wiley. And there is beautiful girls everywhere. …
Best medical care available anywhere. Hands down. Wait times for specialists are often less than non-VA providers.
I'm extremely displeased with the Portland VA currently. I'm going through something very painful and stressful and they have sent me in circles on the phone so many times I can't count simply because they don't communicate with each other properly. This is ridiculous.
Contrary to the whining by some in well over 25 years of care at both the VA Portland Hospital and Health Care System and previously in the Palo Alto HCS my Primary Care Specialty Care the Surgeries have been really Great. Thankfully …
It is disgracegul the way veterans are treated like second rate citizens. Will never understand why this is. No honor no dignity for our veterans especially from the medical field. I dont see any acknowledgments here to any of these …
Don't listen to all the Karens rating one star this facility and the people working in it are excellent. I've always received great attentive care and never had an issue with scheduling being too far out. Am I going to get seen …
I've called 5 times in the last 20 min everytime I'm on hold for an operator it hangs up 30 seconds after reaching the music. The va is a waste of our tax dollars I haven't meet one person who actually wants to help
Good basic health care. Compassionate workers. Competent doctors. Improves as needed. Clean logically laid out campus. Nice friendly attendants. Every one should be provided health care this good. Want elective surgery? Not a feature …
Right from the very start of my dealing with the Dr. and his staff at the Fairview clinic things weren’t right. The Dr. without ever knowing me or finding out anything about me decided to change my medications. Just because I couldn’t …
Had ankle surgery yesterday and I was pleasantly surprised on how kind and professional the staff were.
They made sure I was very comfortable especially since it was my first surgery. …
The clinicians and leadership team dont care about veterans or the quality of their care. Patients are simply a check box to them. They should be ashamed for the lack of responsibility and accountability at all levels.
The phone operator was rude I was calling about a client the operator was just wanted me to get off the phone treat veteran’s better and people that are helping our veterans with respect she was rude and not patient. She was on ER …
The VAMC used to be a great facility. Since Covid they just don’t seem to care any more. Dermatology podiatry optometry Primary Care Patient Records Beneficiary Travel Pain Clinic even the Patient Advocates all have a don’t care …
They don't understand veterans who have been in combat they only want good little veterans who behave like a flower and are highly medicated cooperative veterans. Anything beyond that and you are risk being vilified they don't understand …
UPDATE: was charged $1586.00 dollars for this unhelpful visit. The VA is useless and causes more stress …
I had an appointment eight days ago and was told I needed surgery and some one would be calling me for making an appointment with me. That never happened. I have been calling every day. If I talk to someone they promise they will leave a …
My father went into the emergency room yesterday so he could get a referral for an eye doctor he mentioned something he had read online about some of his eye symptoms and the doctor went and gossiped about him to the nurse because when she …
The Portland VA was the worst job I’ve ever worked. As an old vet I was so proud to have been hired by the VA. I hoped to have retired from the VA. The training was hostile and the workplace toxic.
The Veterans of the USA deserve better treatment.
I have been treated at the Portland and Vancouver medical centers since 1991 and as with any government program there are always ups and downs in quality of care. That said if it weren’t for the VA I would be dead!! I have watched the …
I hate to have to give a 1 star to my medical providers but I have to be honest here. I was left in a room for over 2 hours waiting after they told me the visit was over. Once they were finished with me they stopped checking in until they …
I hope combat veterans start shooting up VA's to show how little they're helping us.
If you can get your health care elsewhere do so. Doctors don't give informed consent difficult to get an appointment doctors look down on the patients difficult to get prescriptions and refill. Patients are not listened to or taken …
Came in for a major surgery today which I’ve been waiting on having since I took shrapnel to the face in 2003 during OEF. Rearranged my whole life around this surgery and waited 15 years for the operation to be unclassified so they VA …
Can not get anyone to answer phones except the main number. If you can get in line to the department you need good lock I've been hung up on many times. If you get to a voice mail box again good luck know one calls back. I've had urgent …
