Dallas Va Medical Center - Va North Texas

Amazing. Best VA hospital I've been to yet, including Corpus Christi, Harlingen, San Antonio, and Austin. Very broad variety of services covering what appears to be the full spectrum of medical services. Staff have been exceptionally helpful and courteous. The young man greeting at the door on my first trip, walked me through the entire first floor to show me around. The wait times, even for walk in stuff have been very short. Much thanks to my fellow veterans, especially Vietnam era guys who fought so long to make the system better for us younger guys coming back from Iraq. And much love to all the civilian employees and volunteers who work so hard to take care of us.

We waited in ER for hours with a BP of 166/116.. Nurses announcing names of patients waiting, saying how far you are in line and letting everyone know that the ER never closes so if they want to leave and come back at a later time that is an option.. I have never been to a medical faculty this bad.. I truly understand why our veterans feel under appreciated... This is ridiculous. If a regular hospital did this all kinds of regulators would be here..

My experience was not too bad. I know the VA is known for their long wait times, but mines was not too long. I was in there for about a little over an hour, but there are a lot of people. I don't understand why people are so upset when there are literally thousands of people needing the help. Yes your wait times are going to be long, and I am sure you can request to be seen outside of the facility. Look up your benefits people and see what you can do outside of the VA because I believe you can submit claims.

This is by far one of the best Va facilities I have seen or felt with. Its a huge facility. The second biggest in the nation by size and by number of veterans seen daily. With that in mind they provide personal and professional medical treatment second to non and on par with the countries biggest hospitals. With one bug difference that they care and truly appreciate there veterans and most nurces either vets them self or married and related to a vet.

Have had the best care from ER to the specialty clinics. Everyone is always warm and welcoming from the check in folks to the providers. Thank you all for your service and support.
