I have been dealing with the VA DORN for a while now with both of my parents and they have all treated me like family... Yes some of the people can be rude but I am still nice to them and alot of times the end up being nice back... The place is Huge and can be intimating to anyone but the people at the front desk are always very helpful
I cannot imagine being a veteran and having to deal with these fools and the like who are employed here solely to bilk the government out of money while not delivering on their job duties.
I had to deal with HR here and they are hands down the most worthless and incompetent idiots I have encountered in some time.
They're stereotypical government workers who do little to nothing in regards to their actual job.
Worst V.A. I've been to. Im coming from Atlanta V.A. where my doctors were superb! Relocated here to S.C. few months ago and i feel like my primary doctor passes off everything when im telling him what i need.Extremely slow E.R. (7 hours), clerks are rude and uncaring, primary providers pass you off to the E.R. for everything before they see you for issues you have had before you arrive here, lets not talk about being an employee here, among other things. No wonder its a two star hospital.
We move quite frequently an have been treated at several VA facilities. I thought the Atlanta VA was the worst until we relocated to SC. Wm J Bryan Dorn VAMC is completely inept. I would give it less than one star if I could. It took me nearly 2 years before I got my INITIAL SCREENING. The doctors are so over scheduled that they rush through their exams and do not listen to what the patients are saying. So far PA is the greatest I've seen. I cannot understand why the VA cannot see why that VA hospital is so great and mirror it throughout the nation.
I must say the lovely lady at reception made the borderline rude treatment at other areas evaporate. Her smile & graciousness lifted the irritation I felt in my somewhat callous treatment elsewhere. I realize that working at a hospital is tiring and HARD as I've been there myself but really guys... it's how you treat people and your smile that makes all the difference. Kudos to reception.
