Tomah VA Medical Center

"Care in the PT department is excellent, but also very busy."

"This place sucks! The Tomah VA Patient Advocate Tammy Worzella is from Stevens Point & talking to people in my county w/o my knowledge or permission. Legal or not, going on for a number of years! Don't drive 60 minutes or more for an Urgent Care visit as they won't listen & certainly won't do anything. I was seen at Tomah VA Urgent Care in September 2021 & the doctor told me 5 or 6 things it wasn't, then told me to go home w/o treatment! I told her that's what St Mikes ER said 9 months ago & she still did nothing! I was seen a year later for the same problem, 10-6-22 & the Doctor did nothing & didn't renew allergy meds or Bupropion. Bupropion is a weight loss drug, takes 30 days to build up, supposed to have your blood sugar monitored & used it up in July 6 weeks before. 6 month prescription, no follow-ups, expired & 18 months later, nothing. I was seen again last October 31st for the same problem, now 6 years & still nothing! Dr Dinglewitz didn't even listen to what I said, ran out, came back in 5 minutes later & said: "Its acid reflux!" Wrong! I know what it isn't, but the doctor didn't what I said, no CT Scan or labs to find out what I'm allergic too! Patient Advocates won't do anything, except chit-chat & say they have to know where you are fishing or they have to know if you are doing any projects & ask questions about your private life which is none of their business & has nothing to do with medical problems or treatment."

"A Hud Vash woman just walked into my house without permission and when I complained the entries into my medical records became dark and somber and negative! If Veterans health is a priority than why are they letting veterans' teeth rot in their mouth? Dental health effects both physical and mental health. Surly they know this!"

"Tomah VA, where your competent psychologist will be fired and replaced by a draconian physician assistant who is incompetent and would rather have vets commit suicide than get help. Deb Frasier has personally killed hundreds of vets through incompetence here. The administration has personally helped her through their own incompetence. Like many VAs, Tomah is a circus of bureaucratic oversight that ultimately defeats it's own purpose. They will literally let you die to free up a bed, and afterwards Deb will still be bragging to the nurses about her new mustang. Investigate Deb Frasier, the wannabe Dr. Death."

"You don't always hear the best things about the VA but I recently registered at the Tomah location and I was VERY happy with he service. Dr. Coffey is absolutely amazing! He answered a lot of questions my civilian docs either didn't know or most likely didn't want to waste their time explaining."
