George E. Wahlen VA Salt Lake City Healthcare

If I could give this place -5 stars I would. I went in there with my grandpa who got stung in the eye by an insect. Because It was very swollen . We waited 30 minutes to see someone. which isn’t that bad for the VA because people have waited hours. however as soon as we got into the room the guy asked him what was wrong left for about 45 minutes came back and said somebody else will be coming into see him moved us into a different room and then another 45 minutes. the guy came in and said you’re fine go home. Didn’t give him any pain medication, didn’t offer what to do to put the swelling down. I am very disappointed this is how we treat the people that fought for our country. I believe they should be treated better than in a normal hospital. They definitely have earned that. And I’ve never been treated like that at a normal hospital.

Until they get their enrollment extension working, I will fix my review. I work remote and have to schedule with this VA. I cannot get a hold of anyone in enrollment and I've been trying for weeks. Every person has sent me to an extension that will hang up. Show up in person and I'm stuck waiting hours just to talk to someone. I'm thankful I have civilian insurance and can go elsewhere.

You might notice, in other reviews, I am extremely harsh on most government entities and with good reason. Government needs to be held to a high standard. They often hold our freedoms and our lives in the palm of their hands. In many cases a number of agencies both state and federal are, for lack of a better term, FUBAR. Many government agencies in the US throw people in jail, many who really do not belong there, completely destroy the lives of the average citizen, and often take more and more of our rights while giving nothing back. And every agency has the problem of bureaucracy. You might say I usually believe that with government a less is more approach is usually better. Enter the VA Medical Center in Salt Lake City. They are the epitome of how an agency should treat those who served. When one government agency completely destroyed my life The George E Whalen Medical center has helped me to build a new life. While they may have the problem of government bureaucracy it's not enough for me to justify giving them a lower rating. So, I am happy to present them with a high rating. Good job!

I have had the privilege of being cared for at this hospital for more than ten (10) years. Knowledgeable, professional, caring, hard working folks. We are blessed to have this hospital up north.
