Came here to get assistance with social security application. The two phone numbers to this office…read morethat I received were both automated systems that simply sent you in a loop and provided irrelevant information. They are boards and signs posted all around the front door stating you can only come into the office via appointment only. However when you try to call to set an appointment or do it online it's impossible. I showed up without an appointment, typed my information into a kiosk and waited to be seen. I am writing this review while waiting to be seen. I am thankful that I will be able to talk to someone but this entire process is cumbersome even to a person in their 20s such as I. Improvements need to be made.

The people giving 5 stars are paid to do so. I have been dealing with them now for 2 months. They…read morelet you wait on the phone for at least an hour. Scheduling appointment will take two weeks. We have hand delivered documents and sent some via registered mail. Agents could not locate the those documents when confronted. We had 5 appointments, none resolving our problem. It is impossible to schedule face to face interview. Latest phone call appointment never happened. When I called the main number they said the agent is delayed. They never called later as promised. I would give the service zero.

Excellent visit, minor hiccup in the signing in process. Overall, the process and visit was fine…read more All of my questions were answered, upon leaving there was no confusion. I left the office knowing the direction I needed to take and the paperwork that was needed for my journey. I am confident that I received the best service and information from Eric. As I navigate through the wicked world of the VA, I am totally confident in the St. Petersburg Regional Office personnel.

The quality rater for my case called to let me know about my upcoming C&P exams. I know his name if…read moreI am ever asked who it was. I asked him why I had to go to the exams because I was already diagnosed by the VA for these issues. I said, "Okay, please call my lawyer to let her know what was going on". I get a call and an email from my lawyer saying she was dropping my case because this rater said I was being "belligerent". I filed a case to the VA Complaint hotline and who calls me? The rater I had made the complaint about in the first place. He claimed he didn't say it and that lawyers lie, however, how did my lawyer know he and I had gone back and forth about my claim? I wasn't being "belligerent", I just had some questions for him. I sent an email complaint to the White House about him. When he was scheduling my C&P exams, he told me he didn't like the contractor they had scheduled me to see, so I requested another contractor. That didn't work out well for me either because my C&P claim got denied. He then suggested I file a TDIU claim, but forgot to mention I would have to go through more C&P exams for my claim to be accepted. I am currently at 90% service-connected. I am 70% for PTSD, 30% for kidney stones, 10% for diabetes, and 10% for GERD. I have had 4 shoulder operations, 1 on my right and 3 on my left and cannot lift over 20 pounds anymore without my bones flaking off and cutting into my tendons and having more surgeries to take out the bone spurs. I've had 1 hernia operation and currently have 2 hiatal hernias in me now. I've had 2 wrist operations, scoliosis in my neck, bone spurs in my feet, osteoarthritis, high-blood pressure with hypertension, asthma, bulging disks in my back, I also suffer from depression and anxiety. I served in the Marine Corps, Army, and National Guard for 10 years as a military policeman and I'm a OEF disabled veteran. I served until I couldn't serve anymore and nobody in this office cares. I wished they could see how a single parent like me tries to support their child being limited on the jobs I can do. I've lived off of $150.00 a month from food stamps. If I am not a 100% service-connected veteran, I don't know who is? I have a Bachelors Degree that I can't no longer use because of my health issues. I didn't graduate college to draw disability. Shame on you guys for what you are doing to veterans! Karma will find you one day. The government wonders why recruitment in the military is down, well, look and see what you are doing to the veterans of this country. I wouldn't tell any young person to serve after what I have been through with the VA.
