I love the people there. Hands down one of the best places to go for treatment in the VA system. I am almost always seen at the scheduled time or very close to it. It s always nice to see familiar faces and be remembered by a very nice staff that makes you comfortable. I go here for my RA, the arthritis clinic is good, and I ve had some tests done and procedures to investigate various problems I ve been having. Every time it s a pleasant efficient experience and everyone is professional and willing to answer any questions I have. The only thing that doesn t make it perfect is the wait time for appointments, because the VA is always so busy and booked up months ahead of time, but they have made great efforts and successfully got me in sooner when someone cancelled. I really appreciate the people at the Ann Arbor VA and thankful to this country for providing it to us vets. Even with my good health insurance, all my meds and tests would have me almost bankrupt by now. I don t know what some of the bad reviews are talking about, my experience has always been good and my doctors are always thoughtful and cautious with treating me, unlike others who just throw pills at you that end up causing more problems. With the care I get here and my team in Toledo things have improved for me over the last year and I m thankful for that! Yes sometimes it can be frustrating dealing with the VA, but these doctors see tons of patients per year and the staff has to deal with the same bureaucracy we do. I m fortunate to have alternatives since I can still work (thanks to these people), but I d rather go here than most private practice doctors.
