I hear the V.A. here is really good but thats just what I hear from a few veterens. They have a hospital and housing on site.

I heard the same about the VA in Las Vegas.....and it was bunk, they were just as bad/incompetent as the VA in San Francisco. I've personally given up dealing with them, and use my insurance and a civilian doctor

i'm not getting any warm and fuzzy feelings regarding my future from this thread. I'll be sure to try to avoid getting sick or hurt!

AF medical is a little better then Army Medical, so I hear anyways. The problem is you have to get seen by so many different people that it might take them months or years to figure out what the problem really is. Unfortunately the PA's at the units see so many people everyday that are just trying to get out of work, that sometimes they don't give the needed attention to guys who really have something wrong with them.

Always better to go to your own doctor. My dad had diabetes and they handled that ok but as far as surgery thats something where you want the best doctor possible to do it.
