I have been going to the VA for about 10 yrs now. The VA has sent me to civilian care for ultra-sound, colonoscopy, and have been getting allergy shots for over two yrs. now. The only thing is that the VA can really get things screwed up paper-wise. I have spent a lot of time getting them straightened out and on the right track. They forget to pay bills and then I get a bill from Dr. But I never have had to pay a nickel yet so all is good. Lucky to have the VA. Oh, and I live near Austin and Temple, Texas where there are two huge VA sites. They send me elsewhere when they cannot provide a particular service (ALLERGY DR) or if they cannot get to me in a certain amount of time.
