My husband was hurt playing football in the navy. He had to have knee surgery. They opened up the wrong knee.
A friend of mine was 8 months pregnant and went to Ehrling Bergquist AF hospital with severe pain. They checked her and said it was false labor. She came back with vomiting also this time, then and they sent her home again. Her appendix burst days before. She survived, but the she was never the same. She has memory loss and talks slowly. She lost her baby.
I don't mean to pick on our military doctors/hospitals. I'm sure there are many good doctors and hospitals, but outside fighting wars and keeping us safe, it's the big government.
When I had my son at Tripler Army Hospital. Throughout my pregnancy I never seen the same doctor twice. On the day I had my son I was given a set of sheets and told where the dust mop was. I was lucky because I shared a room with one other women (who did not take care of her baby when he cried). Apparently most others shared a room with 5 other women.
If people knew what they are in for with government health care, there would be millions walking to DC demanding repeal of obamacare.
“The problem with VA hospitals is that they are government run health care facilities and like all government bureaucracies they care only about drawing a paycheck and nothing about customer service.”
You mean like the Post Office and the Dept. of Motor Vehicles, only they can kill you instead of just being rude.
