Called the VA Clinic in Beaufort and told the receptionist/nurse I have a pretty serious mouth infection and would like an appointment ASAP. She, in a few minutes said we can get you in on June 11th !!!!!!! What the hell, 35 days later !!!!

It's going on nation wide for all Va personal I been waiting for 4 most. For a procedure, this is what you need to do call the closes Va near you and go to the emergency room period they have no choice to get you seen by a expert.

Sir, please call our local Customer Service Team at (843) 789-6066. They can work with you to help resolve your concern.

Yeah I agree with everyone else go to the ER but 35 days for a VA appointment you're doing good!

Yes, go to emergency room, mouth infections are very painful and dangerous!

Like David said, go to the ER, doctor's appointment are honestly for non-emergency cases. However, I can't speak for Beaufort but at the Charleston VA, they have a walk-in clinic for that purpose, where you are seen by an RN who then does an assessment and confer with the provider on what the best plan of action would be for your care. The Charleston VA also has it set up where the patient's schedule their own appointments, as well as offering same day slot availability when you call for cases such as yours. The VA in Charleston is really going above and beyond to maintain the care of their veterans. Heck I wish I was a veteran cause these private sector can get rid of you at anytime and don't even care if they do.
