We were homeless and joined the Hud Vash program. A month later I had a full-time job and an apartment down the street. We were off Hud Vash 10 months ahead of schedule. It's been three years. I got a 3 bedroom house right across the street and still working
Thank you, to all who work there, for taking care of us with compassion and dignity. What you do, really makes a difference in our lives.

I've been in the VA system since 1995. I'll admit it's been somewhat of a roller coaster ride with highs and lows. I decided to try a different approach with a change in how I "perceive" what happens during my visits whether it's to the primary care, specialty care or the ER. I can actually say wow, talk about a good change. The people that we talk to and interact with are not the problem, it's the system that broken and they are doing what they can with what they have. I can honestly say that I've been getting the best care over the last couple of years because I've changed my attitude and perspective of the VA. It is what it is at the VA at the higher levels and I'm like every other veteran in hoping that positive changes are on the way. In the meantime, don't blame the people that you interact with at the VA. They are stuck in the middle and taking the brunt of frustrations because of some others that are higher up in the VA food chain. Yes, there may be the bad apple to deal with occasionally but that's with any where you go whether it's at the VA or grocery store. If you feel that something may be against you, i.e. the VA, maybe you should take a look at your perspective and realize that you'll get further with kindness and understanding. I changed my perspective and it's made a world of difference at the VA for me. It wasn't overnight and it took some time. You might be surprised how your experiences at the VA will change, mine did. And you'll be the one that the VA staff recognizes because they know you're understanding, kind and respectful. They will instantly ask you by name "what can I do for you today" with an honest smile because they know they are going to have a positive experience and in turn they will go the extra mile to help you.
I had some ongoing issues that I tried so hard to get taken care of at other facilities over the years. In the six months I've been in the system here in Amarillo, they have addressed all those issues.
Went very smoothly. Only thing is it takes a lot of time. Everything else was great. Team Courage should be given a raise. They were all great help. Visit was great over all.
My extended thanks to COL Kiefer, Ms. Elizabeth Lowery and the extraordinary staff of medical professionals at the Amarillo VA Health Care System. I have spent time in other VA facilities over the years, and there is simply no comparison to the quality and professionalism at the Amarillo facility.
As a veteran also it makes me proud to see our veterans taken care of in times of need.
Everything I've seen has been top notch care.
VA Secretary David Shulkin should take some time to study the Amarillo facility. Our Veterans across the country deserve the kind of care afforded to us at the Amarillo VA Health Care System.
Almost every medical professional I've talked with at the Amarillo VA is either a Veteran themselves, or their spouse is a Veteran. I feel in good hands, because I know my Veteran brothers and sisters are taking care of me.
At the VA Hospital. I would say it's completely turned my life around.
