Before I could even sit down I was taken in, given pain medication, whisked off to get a cat scan and returned to the ER. They found the problem and it got fixed. The Doctors, the nurses, the radiologist were just so understanding, professional and just all around great people. I would recommend the EK VA Medical Center Emergency Room every day of the week and twice on Sundays. I use the EKVAMC on a regular basis for Physical Therapy, regular medical treatment and for my Pharmaceutical needs. The Physical Therapy section is absolutely fantastic. They have helped me fix problems that I have lived with for years. I am sure there is no better place to go for PT. The Red Team is absolutely responsive, you are taken care of in a very reasonable time frame. I use the My Healthy Web Site to communicate and always get a response within 24 hours but mostly less than 4 hours.

I don't write reviews, so you know it's bad.

I did not receive/was offered ibprofin, a iv, nurses dismissed me, and they told me "i'd have to free up the bed or they'd call security" 2. Had to come in to get treated for some things, ran some tests and told me everything was fine, still felt terrible, went to another hospital and was diagnosed with three different problems. Which means they a. lied about doing the testing or b. lied about the results or didn't care to check. I would be fearful if I had to come back here or any one of my family and friends. it's actually terrible.

The Doctor also was very knowledgeable, he understood my rarely dx'd condition without my having to explain what it was. The surgeon also understood my condition and made a desicion for my health based on her knowledge. I was so grateful to be treated here by so many awesome humans. So thank you from the bottom of this Texas girl's heart!!

After we were seen we were told, you may have a broken nose but I am not sure because I have never seen one before. I am going to send you to LMH to get an XRAY and then have you come back here for treatment. But we might not be able to treat you. At the point Jasmine knew she didn't know what she was looking at she should have told us to go somewhere else and given us our money back. Instead they charged us almost $500 to be told, "we don't know what we are doing and can't help you, here is your bill". Never go here, they don't know what they are doing and will take your money just to tell you, we can't help you.

Well, that's one version, they also told me it was taking so long because the provider had to write it. If a ball got dropped just say so, don't act like getting my prescription is some exotic request that requires special permission.

Whether it be a quick need for medical review and prescriptions or a long term goal of easing my pain and arthritis.

All of my doctors and medical staff have been great to work with from primary care, to surgery, to rehab, to orthopedics, to cardiac care, and sleep apnea.

However, sometime later I went there for different problem which had a standing order for a routine IV. The person starting the IV was clearly unsure and nervous. She chose a very large needle to use on the back of my hand to start an IV. I asked her to use a smaller needle. She left the room. The nurse overseeing my care charged into my treatment room angrily. She was rude and a bully. She threatened to dismiss me from the ER if I "refused care." I needed care at that time and was afraid to leave. The first young woman blew a vein in my forearm which has remained swollen and blue to this day. I asked for a different staff member with more experience if possible. The second individual blew out a vein in my other forearm. Again, it is swollen and blue still today. That experience speaks for itself. When student phlebotomists are being used , patients ought to be informed of it and given the opportunity to choose an experienced and well-qualified professional.

Low-level staff, from receptionists to nursing assistants, are dangerously incompetent: They've repeatedly screwed up administrative issues, scratched my cornea, and collapsed my veins due to not knowing how to perform basic surgical tasks, and then refused to fix their harmful failures. This is clearly a hospital whose owners are interested in nothing but maximizing their own profit. Unless you are on the brink of death, avoid Via Christi like the plague. Go to Topeka, Clay Center, KU Med . . . anywhere but this awful, harmful, irresponsible hospital that exists just shy of the legal definition of medical malpractice.
