They need to hire more doctors and nurses so they don't have to cut veterans appts like they do. Some veterans need an appt every 6 months

Absolutely no communication. Five primary care providers in five months. I happened to be one of the puppies that was picked by providers and they leave for brighter pastures. Except for the one they seem to have removed from contact with patients promote and move to Olympia or Lacy in a office. AATW!
Robert Donaldson

I don't like my primary team quality of service is greatly reduced from what I have experienced in the past. Mental Health care is substandard difficult to get appointments and then they waste your time they cancel and don't bother to let you know. I am planning on changing providers to a new CBOC opening this June in Puyallup.
