Eva Spence: What a wonderful place this is!

Katrina Clark: Beautiful facility. Very clean. Everything was very nice and high end but still very welcoming and home like. We are so grateful for the opportunity to be here. It was a huge relief to be near the hospital for rest and nutrition but close enough to go back and forth from house to hospital as needed.The volunteers who make food and provide food do an amazing job of offering a selection for everyone. Anyone who has to spend a long time there would never get board with their meal & drink options. And the beauty of the facility was very relaxing. Thank you Fisher House!!

CLARENCE STEINMAN: Had a colonoscopy this morning it was nothing but a breeze walk in the park great job by everyone involved thank you very much

James Young: Late taking me and my wife home.

Team Minney: Misdiagnosed and dismissed me SEVERAL times. They also had the proof and images showing what was wrong with me and still put me through unnecessary imaging and let me suffer. They said they read my results of imaging and I was fine. I have my results and they were BEYOND wrong. We expect proper care but they can’t even read!!! I saw the ER and their primary care physicians in 2 different clinics and one at the location in Canton….all not doing their jobs properly.These doctors were letting me live in extreme agony for no reason. They made my issue worse and have prolonged my healing time. Went to Florida to get assistance (my aunt took care of me) because I couldn’t care for myself and the VA there in Tampa had answers in less than an hour.If you have another choice don’t use the VA in Ann Arbor. I pray that when you finally another VA or physician they treat you like a human being. I hate that medical care for those who have sacrificed so much is the poorest healthcare we have around!

Shannon Smith: I can't compare it with any other VA hospitals, but my dad says this one's the best one in Michigan by far. I could say with certainty that it is on par with the surrounding hospitals (UofM and St.Joes) two of the best hospitals in Michigan. I can't say enough good things about every person in every department in this hospital. They have successfully saved my father's life MULTIPLE times! He's been a personal favorite of Dr.s for example of the extreme case. He's survived thru at least 4-5 AAA surgeries, stents, embolization, so many scans we lost count. Most recently in an MVA and was introduced to orthopedic surgeons, CHF meds team, physical therapist and many more new departments and Doctors. And they're ALL AMAZINGLY SKILLED INDIVIDUALS, from the sweet guy in the cool hat at the parking gate shack, to the sweet speed guys driving souped-up golf cart taking people where they need to go, to the check in receptionist, ALL the nurses on every floor, skilled doctors and surgeons all kept clean and the smiling faces in the Patriot store, they keep us moving, safe and well. They're all the best! Thank you so much!

Bonnie Carlson: GREAT service

Mad Monk Gaming: Best VA facility I have ever experienced

Sheridan Martin: My visit was very productive. The staff very helpful and professional a great and comfortable environment.

Gary BIG BAD DAD: What a change since it has been updated . Everything is run so great for the Veterans. The VET'S get what they deserve for giving there all for there country . It is really great how it has changed. When I got out of the Army in 71 and went to the VA it was not run like it is today. Thank you all, you Health WORKERS, do a great job of taking care of all the VET'S !!!

Daniel Hoffman: Was very pleased with the doctor and his advice will complete tomorrow so ii am happy will get new glasses

Coyote Hunter: VA Healthcare is high quality.

Laurie Rohlf: First class facility for veterans!

Pat Kulhanek: Extremely busy. Bob's appointment was for 10:30. Didn't see Dr. until afternoon.

Kathleen O'Rourke: To the man behind me in line complaining he wasn't getting his turn fast enough, don't you have a ladies room to go cry in!?ER is good here thank you. Typical VA mess, expect a suicide conversation with the pre-recorded machine multiple times before getting through to someone 50/50 chance gives a darn. Once this initial fubar passes it slowly gets better🤯 Hang in There👆 All bathrooms are unisex, expect a sick man to come out of every door when it opens.

Donald Mature: They were helpful and efficient.

Tahlia Grace: The VA is the worst healthcare system I have experienced. They schedule appointments without consulting me and when I do need an appointment I have to wait 3+ months, and they consistently fail to send me prescriptions on time even when I request refills several weeks in advance.

Clare Corcoran: I recently underwent surgery at this facility for ACDF (cervical spine fusion) and the surgical and anesthesiology teams were excellent, as well as the post-op care. The nurses I had during my inpatient stay were very compassionate and supported me through all my needs from pain medication to toilet assistance. As a female veteran, I felt very respected and supported by the nursing and surgical staff. Thank you all so very much. The food is also better than I expected, and after my first night, I could order customized meals to help with my recovery (soft foods diet and type 1 diabetic).

Mike L: TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE!!!!! I went in just to get established with a Primary Care Doctor and I was there for over 2 HOURS!! I was also surprised by THE LACK OF KNOWLEDGE BY THE PRIMARY CARE DOCTOR. THE WHOLE VISIT WAS TOTALLY. UNACCEPTABLE. I expected so much more out of this hospital and left there EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED.

Chad Beckey: The ER person tonight was so rude and didn't have any compassion. It was like we were interrupting her Facebook time. Now I understand why people don't like to goto the VA. Really need to look into the staff that's employed there. I understand that there are protocols in place for a reason. But your the front desk and the first person people see. Gives the VA a bad impression.

Carl Rockwood: The worst health care imaginable. I was in prosthetics with a torn knee and was given a business card to call to receive a knee brace. I would have to make a 2nd appointment, wait 9 days, and drive 208 miles more to receive a knee brace. I complained to the staff and got security called on me. I went to Walmart and purchased one for 26.00. I'm on home O2 and all of my oxygen equipment is sitting in my lawn waiting on the VA contractor (First Community Care) to pick up. FCC dropped off the equipment with no instructions or support. Repeated calls to VA pulmonary and FCC Have been met with lies and so many disappointments I have decided it is better to die without O2 than deal with the VA or its contractors. I implore all who read this to get your family and friends out of the VA Death care system. They kill more good Americans than all of our enemies combined. I have complained so much to the staff,patients advocates(actually the VA's advocate) and now I resort to this last form of protest......Addendum: On Feb8 2023 Humana provided me with O2. I survived without O2 for six months. I almost died waiting. The Ann Arbor VA Advocates called me and wanted this review taken down. Both who called were angry. They really didn't care about my mortality. I am proud to be a service connected disabled veteran. I served again as a DOD contractor (O4-GS12) in Desert Shield/Desert Storm. I will serve again if needed. But the VA can suck my balls.....

STEVE: March 2023Veterans using VHA facilities in Michigan be aware you don't have civil rights protections once any staff makes a disruptive behavior report on you and the social workers find you guilty. This is permanent, it can't be amended, done in secret and provides no due process. The result of this not only may result in imprisonment but also feeds into algorithms that drive care decisions.September 2022 After years of being denied care and being flagged after I made a report about PMR they are now providing care again!May 2022 Egregious misuse of prevention programs to cover sentinel and other events. Years of medication errors and reprisals for reporting them. When you get good care it is great but if you have a problem and you will be blamed for causing it and dropped from care.November updateIf two years ago you had problems with rehabilitation, pain or MH, made a complaint, you should review records, request FOIA for patient advocate system records and DBC records. Many policies are dated, misused or incorrect at this system. This is time critical, send SF95 by end of the month for treatment errors occurring in January 2020.October updateIf system PMR staff caused you harm over the last 2 years you need to submit SF95 form ASAP to insure your rights are protected.Ethics, honor and patient rights rot under VA AA PMR care with mental health taking second place.September 2021 update.The administration of this hospital is really bad and is turning the entire system into a waste. They are using inappropriate labeling of veterans in responce to patient reports and inquiries.August 2021 update.Still refused services and treatment for using the correct and protected procedure for reporting errors in care. VA OIG reviewed and failed to follow up.100 percent disabled Veteran with no criminal or legal problems denied treatment and access to VA facilities for reporting to Congress that I hadn't had any communication from my assigned provider for a year despite changes and discontinuation of treatments without notice or cause. The Director's staff and service staff have confirmed on the record the physician was and is wrong.February 2021 update.The Director and Chief staff of the health care system have falsly accused me of wrongdoing to Congress, OSC, OIG and law enforcement in response to my protected reporting of physicians and staff. I have had services denied and treatment withheld. No mandatory reporting is followed by this healthcare system. The hospital director doesn't investigate and fraudulently responds to official inquiries with fabrications. When audio and health records are provided to oversight as proof, no one will to take action, some because they assume someone else will. SF 95s are ignored. VA MDs and UofM Fellows/residents have reported to the same healthcare systems leadership and oversight about the harm being done with no action, dozens of other veterans have been in contact but are scared as many have already been retaliated against for reporting greavences. Some of the patient advocates assist the leadership in discourging and covering up the number and type of greavences being received. The VA police are used to intimidate and silence, the directors office and VA police on multiple occasions with, no signed orders or due process, have contacted me to restrict my rights and threaten my wife and I directly. OIG, Congress, VA General counsel and VA Secretary office all have done nothing.This Healthcare system doesn't follow Joint Commission, US code, VA policy or quality and safety standards. The VA OIG has repeatedly found that VA Ann Arbor refuses to provide required information, has noncompliant services, noncompliant wait times and fraudulently responded with oversight on a continual basis.

Domonique Woodard: I didn’t give it 1 star because until yesterday I had always had a favorable experience at this hospital but you guys need to take a look at the staff you have working in your ER… they were incredibly rude back to back so it must be a culture thing in that department. They lacked empathy or even how to talk to someone with decency I was honestly disgusted and disappointed. My family comes here often and is usually pleased but not on March 16th.

We Me: Great doctors and nurses. Entire medical staff and employees are always there to help. Best health care I ever experienced.

kayla samuels: The doctors, nurses and care staff are great. The administration and the social workers we worked with should be ashamed of themselves. After repeatedly refusing a long term memory care placement for our loved one, due to concerns about the facility, we were eventually bullied into agreeing to letting him go. We received no guidance from the social workers through the process of trying to apply for Medicaid and were subsequently denied twice. We later found out the facility and va have a contract, that’s why they pushed it so hard. They also attempted to withhold information from us, were rude, condescending, and threatening among other things. I’m sure some individuals who work here care about the patients, but the social workers we worked with did not care about us or our family. They cared only about adhering to arbitrary policies and were not forthcoming with information. Definitely not ethical social work practice, that’s for sure.

Quenton Ross: Called cardiology procedures department to reschedule. No one answered. I left a message and no one called me back. I also was supposed to receive a call from the optometry department to schedule my follow-up appointment. They never called. It's discouraging.

Philip Thompson: Efficient, Courteous

Grant Pinson: Worst mental health facility in michigan. Secretary called high as a kit. 2nd video visit 5 months after initial. Unsat. Do not recommend.

Gary Korzeniewski: Great Healthcare for Veterans.

Chris Roper: It is telling when a VA doctor tells you that your better off having private hPrary health insurance and only relying on the VA system as a backup

Michael Hermann: I'm so tired of being passed around. Being denied medical treatment, medicine, and just not listened to. Can't ever see a doctor when I need to, appointments are 8 to 12 months out or your denied because you'vealready seen a doctor the pervoius year. Not once in the past three years have I seen the same doctor. I'm filing a formal complaint. Changes need to be made to this hospital. I can't believe they get away with this. This hospital is a perfect example for a failing health care system.

James Whittum: Excellent as always

Mo Mo: I sued the VAMC and the specific doctors for not providing me with the "Standard of Care" practiced at all hospitals and Won a settlement of $150,000. I encourage others to do the same. If they come to you and admit hurting you, then want you to sign away your rights for some amount, Don't Do It! See an attorney first. There are attorneys that will take you case, even though they may not be able to charge "You," because they Can charge the Government if it goes to court.

Gerald Sheffer: I just had my second bladder surgery and their team was AWESOME. I give them five stars. However the urinology clinic only gets two because of their lack of communication. I've tried numerous phone calls to them and never get a human. And getting a return call, forget about it. I've been to them on several occasions and with 3 people sitting at the reception desk there's not one excuse for not answering calls

Jess Jessmer: Great place and really great people. 10/10

Robert Bull: The Veterans Resourse Center was very helpful, and the food was satisfying. We also met some new veterans who came to visit. We are preparing for our upcoming Open House on the 24th from 10-5.
