This place is HORRIBLE, I would give 0 stars if I could. On 2 occasions I've had to wait over 7 hours to be seen in the emergency room (one time 7 hours one time 8). Their equipment is also broken. I fractured my ribs in jiu-jitsu class and had difficulty breathing but they told me that my ribs were perfectly fine, I probably just tore a muscle. (I didn't know torn muscles made it difficult to breathe) I've also been x-rayed for a curve spine due to separation from service and they have said that my spine is normal, however when i went to a local chiropractor they have said that my spine is curved. This place is just a fraud to receive money from the government and does just enough to get by inspection. Many veterans have problems here but this is the only place they have. This VA should be under investigation with the amount of EEO complaints they receive as well.
