The Anchorage VA Clinic sucks! The motto is "if we don't meet your standards, then lower them."
After a disastrous appointment in the women's clinic six or seven years ago, I have not returned. I've decided to do without medical care as I can't afford to pay for quality & appropriate medical care. I don't care anymore.
If you listen to the public affairs rep, Sam Hudson, he'll say that nothing could be better than treatment and services and joy at that clinic. As long as the media continues to run, without fact-checking, his public affairs releases (right, KTUU?), the same sad, unsatisfactory, tortuous, cognitively dissonant practices continue.   
2 male veterans told me last week "if they demolish the Anchorage VA Clinic tomorrow, there would be no difference in the services" for entitled vets. VA practices there are dangerous, painful, insensitive, wrong, worthless, & Audy likes to make "prank calls." I asked for her supervisor to call me back. But we know the VA doesn't return calls
