I swear not a single person there has had any kind of actual training. Good lord. First off, good luck getting an appointment. Second, god forbid you actually have to call them. You'll get bounced around before somebody finally transfers you to the EMERGENCY ROOM instead of Eligibility. Just wow...

Working here, is great and I would love to go back. Trying to return, is a headache. The departments, need help and tell you, they can hire and train you. When you apply, the HR reps.do not want to refer you, do to your exp. And they have no knowledge about the positions, so a person can not return!! The V.A. has taken away the Human Resource Office and hired these so called reps. This is causing problems with people getting hired or returning. Yet they are complaining of no help!! If they would change their ways and return to a common sense system, they would get help. The orientation is a week long thing and if you leave the VA, even for a day, you have to go through the whole thing again. It is a waste of tax payers and the government's money. Also it is a waste of your time. A person, gone less than say, 5 years, should not have to go through this. Also a person has to travel to the Murfreesboro Campus,for orientations, even if you are going to work in Nashville!! When you do not have a car, it is very hard to do. They need to provide shuttle service between Nashville and MURFEESBORO. VA needs to return again having orientations at both campuses. Also returning employees should only have to go for one day to get physical and name badges. If they would change their ways, people, including me would return!! The reps. that they have, do not want to help if you are having problems with paper work. You can send and send them emails, they will not respond. If you send an email saying, you backing out or not going through with the application, they respond in a minute or two saying, thanks and have a nice day. This is NOT GOOD for new or returning employees. They need to have better reps and computers, at both csmpuses, for employees to talk to and use.

This is my first visit to the Dermatologist. I will start as I go through everything. Getting to the building alone is a nightmare. No signs are pointing you to the right way or entrance. I had to walk around until I found it. I had to stop by the restroom before going to my appointment. The bathrooms are disgusting ๐Ÿคฎ they need to gut it out and build new ones entirely. As I went into the dermatologist department, the people working the desk were insulting and pretentious. All the veterans have hearing aids and can hardly walk, and the people working there are rude. The doctors are great, but not the workers. You need to get new staffing and completely remodel the whole place. It seems like everyone is from the 70s. VA administration needs to control this because I will let everyone know as I visit. I am trying to call the clinic to get scheduled for physical therapy and a pulmonary function test, but no one answers or hangs the phone up.

I now get almost all pf my care here, and I love it. They get a bad rap from some of my acquaintances, but I I have rarely had a complaint. In fact, my only issue with them is the inability to get through to someone on the scheduling phone line. I donโ€™t remember the last time I got through to someone on the line.

I recently moved to Nashville from Colorado and I'm waiting on information to transfer my care. I have been very sick, maybe a cold or flu. I also feel like I'm getting worse and not better. Would it be quicker for me to just go through the ER?

Christina Ford | Aug 15, 2022
Matthew McLaughlin | Aug 15, 2022

If you go to the E.R. at the V.A., they should be able to confirm your enrollment and be able to treat you. Just be sure to have your V.A. I.D. with you when you go

Depending on your county. Check with your county veterans office. Many offer free van services to appointments at the main campus. Then from there the hospital will provide shuttle services to other locations.

Thankfully I stay pretty healthy so I've never been to the VA. Do I bring my DD214 and ID? Can I just show up to be seen or do I have to set an appointment, it's for pretty intense pain in my foot and calf making it difficult to walk.

Ed David | Oct 15, 2018
Richard Cowles | Oct 15, 2018

Agree. The ER is the quickest way. DD214 and 2 forms of ID. After that visit, see social services fir assignment to a primary care provider. If a war vet within 5 years of discharge, you would go through Post Deployment for care to start. But ER first since in acute pain.

Covid restrictions implemented by both Vanderbilt and the VA have cut off all thoroughfares between the 2 hospitals. They have yet to be restored to pre-pandemic access

I found people they're extremely help one night the only issue I might have had was if you have a loved one staying there overnight and you need to be close to them they don't have any helpful suggestions for where you could stay close by.

Jimmy Holcomb | Oct 14, 2020
Gordon Rolston | Oct 14, 2020

If you don't already have a primary care physician there, it is a dreadfully slow process to get to your first appointment. Depending on your situation, the quickest route may be to present yourself at the ER.

You can't call clinics directly anymore unless they have given you an extension. The old numbers send you to central call center. I have tried several of the clinics I use and end up back in same place.

Iโ€™m thinking of moving to Nashville one day. Iโ€™ve been part of the Biloxi VA for 25 years and I have appointment/ care givers that are awesome Iโ€™m sent outside for needed treatments which is great. How would you rate yours

Deborah Quicksall | Oct 15, 2019
Richard Longstreth | Oct 15, 2019

I've heard of bad experiences at other VA facilities but to be 100% completely honest, I cannot think of a single instance where I experienced poor care while seeing doctors and staff at the Nashville campus. I've had several surgeries and must be seen several times a year by doctors here and only have praises to sing on their behalf. I cannot speak to the nearby Murfreesboro campus as I have not been seen there, but I have not heard anything negative about it either. If you do come to Music City, I believe that you won't find anything to worry about concerning the care that you will receive at this VA facility. ๐Ÿ‘
