I have been going to the Milwaukee VA for approx 4 years. The best care hands down. My Primary Care doctor, Dr Kuester always goes above and beyond the call of duty. I have had several tests and a few procedures done with care, kindness and understanding. I would not hesitate in recommending the Milwaukee VA to all local vets.

I’ve had nothing but great experiences here. Been a patient since this time last year and am very grateful for the caring doctors, nurses and staff. This is now the standard by which I’ll measure healthcare facilities. Update: still receiving the very best care. Grateful and blessed, staff and facility is awesome.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Why do you not treat vets.right? And who are you to not take calls about miss treatment and not following through with Dr. Orders? Or even talk to the Vet.

Sheila Zilinsky | Jan 9, 2020
Allen Murphy | Jan 10, 2020

I've yet to have any problems there, or treatment issues, and never had any issues as to any co-pay problems, so it's not about money, either.

I reviewed the old building. Did they rebuild? Because the old building was supposed to be made into housing for vets

Tracy Smith | Jan 9, 2019
augreich | Jan 10, 2019

As a Veteran who is at the VA frequently I can tell you they're always remodeling stuff. As far as the old building I'm not sure. Housing for Vets is there on the campus it just depends on the Veterans circumstances. I believe they do have long term housing but it's few in number.

is there a way to see the customer billing is to know what the co-pay charges are electronically?

Allan Hagen | Jan 9, 2019
augreich | Jan 10, 2019

I can't give a certain answer but if you are not already enrolled in eBenefits and MyHealtheVet do so. I'm enrolled in both. I've never tried to access billing information. Otherwise call billing and ask if you can do that electronically. Hope this helped.
