This particular VA HOSPITAL needs to be investigated by some other investigative authorities...the VA cannot investigate the VA due to the problem that the reigning administration has with extreme bias and prejudice against VETERANS...they will (the DIRECTOR, his OFFICERS, and their ASSISTANTS)
protect their medical staff to the detriment of the VETERANS...their total lack of respect to VETERANS and any medical concerns they have trickle down
through the medical ranks--from a NEUROSURGEON down to a clerk in PATIENT TRAVEL...if the VETERANS "do not fall in line", they can be expected to be blamed, and if that does not work, they are ignored, hopefully, with the result of the VETERAN just giving up and disappearing...this is what the DIRECTOR and his STAFF hope to accomplish-- sweep the mess under the carpet and move on; unfortunately, the VETERAN is left alone and suffering due to lack of proper care. I sometimes wonder if this could be one reason why there is such a large ratio of VETERANS taking their lives...I have talked with soldiers returning from combat thinking the VA will be there to help them...what a rude awakening for them...I am just another sad story of a VETERAN trying to get justice within a "criminal element" that poses as a "VETERANS" medical health establishment
serving THEMSELVES at the risk of the physical, mental, and emotional health of so many VETERANS. Their answering machine ends with the statement that we served our country, now it is their turn to serve us--this, to many VETERANS, is a slap in the face...I have been trying for 8 YEARS to work with this MEDICAL staff and for the last 2 YEARS of these 8 YEARS, with the ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF...at least now I realize why I have been treated so shabbily by the MEDICAL STAFF...they are just mirroring the ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF'S attitude toward the VETERANS that are trying to get help...I feel, right now, that I have no MEDICAL CARE...I am, for right now, on my own...FYI--MALPRACTICE IS A CRIME; even within the VETERANS ADMINISTRATION HOSPITAL...and WE do not have to accept it as a routine daily event...
