I'm just happy to have health insurance that I can use at other health facilities rather than the VA. If you have major health concern I would not recommend going to the VA to be seen. In my opinion I don't think the VA has capability to save your life if you are in need of an emergency surgery. This is from my past experience as well as speaking with other veterans who had bad experience at the VA hospitals.
I feel that the VA hospital in Iowa City, Iowa is good for prescribing medicine, getting eye glasses or dealing with problems that are not life threatening. Since being a patient with the VA hospital in Iowa City, Iowa my experience has not be all good. I can date this back to 2007 to present.
This is my opinion and this is how I feel about the VA. I'm happy for the veterans who had good experience with the VA and good luck to the people who are still struggling VA.
