Binghamton VA Clinic - Binghamton (NY)

1 /5 Alba Traoz: Even if youre 100% service-connected permanent & permanent/total, I do not recommend this clinic. If you are a women & are assigned Dr. Webster, I absolutely recommend changing doctors immediately. He doesnt understand really anything about psychiatry beyond "just think positive thoughts". I dont know why a doctor would be clueless as to why anxiety is increased when youre told you have ONE TO TWO YEARS LEFT ON THIS EARTH. I might not even make it to my daughters graduation. Now Dr. Webster is on a revenge quest to make sure I receive absolutely no help as a 100% service-connected permanent & total disabled veteran for PTSD. In fact, he is going out of his way to make it even harder. Im a stage 4 cancer patient but Dr. Webster wants to ensure whatever time I have lepton earth is absolutely miserable, he wants me to stay chained to my bed until I die. The ONLY reason I have late-stage cancer is their refusal to listen to me about my symptoms for years. Told me I didnt need a Pap smear for five years. I came with late stage cancer. Now, Im being punished & lied about for switching doctors. I tried to switch doctors years ago but this doctor told me it wasnt possible. I found out, years later that it actually is possible. Then I read his notes & he has made such a false statements, Im left with no choice but to take action via an advocate. Im filing a complaint about this doctor with every agency I need to in New York State. Im looking into legal options on how to get this lie removed from my medical records. I also have a line in with my state senator & have been asked to explain everything to them in detail, which I will absolutely be doing. This "psychiatrist" has accused me of being a drug-seeker for trying to get help with autism & ADHD. Autism doesnt even involve medication. He also said Im not autistic because I "have empathy & can make eye contact." This means he is totally uneducated about autism. Autistic people have empathy & the eye contact I do make is FORCED & UNCOMFORTABLE but if I dont make eye contact, Im labeled "rude" or a "liar" so I HAVE NO CHOICE. He doesnt even KNOW women are misdiagnosed & struggle getting a diagnosis until theyre adults. His PTSD "treatment" is literally "just try to think positive thoughts". He was absolutely baffled as to why I had increased anxiety after being diagnosed with STAGE FOUR CANCER. Now since he has passed these lies onto my new "doctor", they are making sure that they make my quality of life, whatever life I do have left, as miserable as possible. Its like THIS VA IS INTENTIONALLY TRYING TO LET ME DIE. I am so disgusted over the outright provable lies this man has said about me, all because I switched doctors because this man refuses to listen or hear me out in any way, which, the VA not listening to me is the ONLY reason the cancer is even a thing. They did nothing to help me in any way & are now actively harming me. This clinic is a total nightmare. I have only known of one single good person there in the entire almost 15 years Ive been going to this VA. You are truly putting your life in what I believe to be extremely incompetent hands. They are the only reason I have to be scanned every 90 days for cancer cells for the rest of whatever life I have left. They are making my quality of life as miserable as possible because my infusions cost them $22k every 45 days.

1 /5 Jay Foster: The list of misdiagnosis is far to long and hurtful to list here. If you only need to check and see if you heart is beating theyll do just fine. Too bad the behavioral health is in the same building and has to be associated with the medical section since they do a pretty good job. New update 11/22/22 Today I witnessed an elderly veteran being told to wait outside in 20 degree weather for someone to come and talk to him. He was walking with a cane and not a problem for anyone. I went out and talked to him and told him to come back inside while another vet told the receptionist he was to come back indoors. Myself and two other vets stayed with him until someone from the back came and made him go outside again. I passed by them on my way out and they were being disrespectful in their tone towards him. It might seem a little picky but would it be too difficult to add the words please and thank you to the vocabulary of the people that work there.

1 /5 roger: Been going here for over 10 years. They do the bare minimum. They have no reliable services for homeless veterans. They have horrible communication skills and just repeat nonsense information read from a pamphlet designed to frustrate and irrate you till you hang up and

1 /5 kathleen harrison: After weeks of attempting to get an appointment for my 89 year old father, we had a video appointment. The doctor told me to call his nurse "Theresa" and have her schedule physical therapy & home health checks. She was not empathetic to his needs, more concerned with her own and getting covid. she informed me that she could "put the requests out there, but it would be 1 to 3 months before he could get any service" she said everyone is suffering now and I needed to understand she would not put other nurses at risk???
