Reviews of Cheyenne Veterans Affairs Medical Center

Terry Powell

Can't say enough good things about Dr. Jiles. Her professionalism, knowledge and care for her patients are superior. She took the time to help maneuver through paperwork in order to expedite cancer treatment. She was a godsend to this family during our time of need. Thank you so much!

Great place to meet other vets, and to share stories. Medical staff is very courteous, friendly, as well as very professional. Will highly recommend for all veterans and active/reserve enlisted and officers.

Bill Abbott

The nicest staff and hospital I've ever used in the va system. Not perfect, but kind, caring, concerned, professional and actually motivated to help us.

Love Cheyenne VA, I use secure messaging, which is answered quickly as always. Great job and Thank you for all you do with the Veteran community.

I’ve just (this week) become enrolled at the VA after 30 years of work and care at civilian facilities. As I’m getting older, I’m developing health problems that come along with age. It’s been quite difficult getting care now (civilian), even making appointments, so I have been beyond thrilled with the care I’ve received from the VA in just a few days. Not only is the care excellent but everybody has gone out of their way to hook me up with and coordinate the care that I need - quite a new experience for me!! It’s extraordinary! Everyone has been genuinely caring and they actually listen!! If you qualify for VA care I recommend the Cheyenne VA 120% plus!!

About four years ago I enrolled for services here at the Cheyenne VA. I have to admit I was a little hesitant, based on some past experiences in the 1970s, shortly after I was discharged from the Marine Corps. At that time, going to the VA was somewhat akin to going back into the service-almost like boot camp-with maybe a little less screaming. Everyone seemed surly, impatient, and sometimes even rude. Unfortunately, the negative media stories that I had more recently seen and heard about the VA system did nothing to alleviate my fears. Well, here I am, about to go back for my annual physical and I have to tell you that I am actually looking forward to it. I’ll admit, that’s not something you hear every day about a healthcare facility, but my experience here at the Cheyenne VA has been absolutely amazing. The care is first rate, the providers are professional and caring, and the facilities, though stuffed into an old building, are clean, orderly, and even though it is somewhat a of a maze, they have people to guide you around. No getting lost here! Everyone that I’ve encountered has been competent, professional, and helpful. They are well organized and the various departments seem to closely coordinate. That’s helpful for me since I live in Torrington and prefer not to make multiple trips if I can avoid it. The onboarding process was quick and easy. The supporting website works like a charm. The communication is great, and don’t forget, this is the government that I’m talking about! Socialized healthcare…go figure! In summary, the Cheyenne VA has great people and great care. If you are a veteran and require medical care, this is the place for you. If I could, I’d give them 10 stars, but Google has rules…

After receiving care at the VA since 96, the facility in San Antonio and surrounding areas had become unusable, to the point that I gave up and started paying out of pocket for my health care. I just moved to Cheyenne, and in one trip to the VA here I was instantly enrolled and scheduled for a Dr. appt. My appt went great and I am now getting several issues taken care of that I had not been able to receive attention for in Texas for years. Everyone is friendly here, it's never crowded, and there is hardly a wait for anything. I'm still in disbelief.

Excellent care and very friendly staff. I changed my VA medical location after moving and so glad I did. Denise Martinez (paper girl 😉) was very caring and attentive while providing excellent care during my VA appt. She was also able to see my husband Mike S.(also a veteran) on the same day due to multiple cancellations. Thank you to Denise and all the wonderful staff at the Cheyenne VA. See you soon!

Cheyenne Veterans Affairs Medical Center is top notch! My husband is a vet and I have been to many VA medical facilities with him throughout the U.S. and this one truly prides itself on outstanding medical care for our Veterans. Sam you are doing an amazing job in designing a VA medical facility that not only posts signage that says they care, but the medical staff seem to genuinely care about my husband's well being. This is an outstanding VA medical center! Thank you sir! The campus is beautiful. Someone had told me before we went that it was older, and it is, but it is well maintained. Each time we have been to this facility, when we walk into the building, if we look around for something, someone always asks us what we are trying to find, and they will escort us to where we need to be. It happens every time and it could be a staff member on their way to lunch or on their way back from lunch, as they escort us they engage with us in pleasant conversation. Also, when we've had to talk to anyone to check in for an appointment or update information, like the lady in x-ray, the lady at the Travel Agent window and the lady that puts in personal contact information, sorry I cannot remember your names, but these three ladies stand out to me as being all out friendly, like nice family members. While everyone we've come in contact with that works at Cheyenne Veterans Affairs Medical Center has treated us like we are part of a family, these ladies are the aunts you go to family reunions to see. Thank you ladies, I look forward to seeing you again in the future. This is a big deal to me and my husband, because we have been to some not so great VA hospitals and for any vet that has multiple health issues it's frustrating on top of being sick, it's unnecessary stress to an already stressed out veteran. Plus, this hospital has a Farmers Market outside there facility that offers fresh, clean, local, affordable foods. I've never seen that before. That, in my opinion, is also outstanding. To all the staff members and employees of Cheyenne Veterans Affairs Medical Center, thank you, thank you all for working together as a team to be the best medical facility to treat our Veteran's. It matters and we've noticed...

As a disabled veteran, I have sought care from various VA facilities over the years. Without a doubt the Cheyenne VA Medical Center is the facility that all others should strive to emulate. Year in and year out they consistently deliver the highest quality service and care to our Veterans. The professional service and care they provide is second to none. They impart genuine concern and care for Veterans like me THANK YOU Cheyenne VAMC.

I received a text message to schedule my covid vaccine. It was basically the easiest thing ever. I didn't know I couldn't bring my toddler with me but they were amazing at taking care of everything. I was immediately escorted to the right location, sent back and taken care of. It was amazing. Thank you everyone. Excellent care, friendly staff and so easy to schedule. Meanwhile my poor husband is still trying to find a Covid vaccine appointment. Edit: I just received a call saying I can schedule my husband. This place is amazing and they are so caring.

Just moved to Cheyenne. Had a pre primary appointment to get questions and vitals out of the way at 730. Initial primary at 0800. He ordered some labs and meds for me. I walked over to lab to get blood drawn by 0835 and had my medication from the pharmacy and our the door by 0900. It was incredible. Fastest and most efficient VA service I've ever had (this is my 4th VA - I move around a lot). Everyone was nice and friendly and it was a small clinic, with good signs, and easy to navigate. Highly recommend coming here if you qualify.

I am not one to like the VA. Nothing but bad experiences. I would like to say I got treated better yesterday at the VA in Cheyenne better than I would have ever dreamed. Michelle in Primary Care totally took care of my issue from the moment I walked into her office. Yes I spent the mandatory 4 hours working on it, but she stayed by my side the entire time! I really couldn't thank her enough for what she did. If you need the VA this is the one to use. I'm actually thinking about do all my care here.

I have always enjoyed and appreciated my experiences with the Cheyenne VA Medical Center! Everyone is dedicated to providing the best care possible to veterans, and acts in the best interest of the veterans! Many employees have been there for years and are proud of their facility and the great work they do - with good reason!

Jay Fales

Had to have surgery and it was a great experience. They kept my wife informed of my status. The operating room staff were very professional and answered all of our questions. They made me feel very comfortable. Pre-op was checked and double checked all paperwork, and good at hitting the vein the first time. Operating team took time with you and was friendly. Dr. Clark went over everything to ensure nothing was missed and made sure I understood the procedure. He talked to me and not at me. Post-op was the same nurses that already knew me and got me coffee. Great experience

Frederick Hofmann

I have received care from the VA Medical Center several times over the years last eight (8) years. My care has been nothing less than exceptional! This facility has the best staff of medical professionals and administrators. And it rivals some of best civilian hospitals for patient care. Please take note of this point - I live 50 miles away from this medical center but would drive much further than that to be treated there!

Joe Irion

As far as the nurses go, they were amazing. The ER staff were great too. The only issue I have with the Cheyenne VA is the food. I wouldn't feed that food to my dog. You don't get a choice in what you eat either. Everyone gets the same tasteless garbage. It would look better as vomit.

Justin Hughes

Have been to many VA's across our country, not once have I cared to leave a positive review! This place is absolutely phenomenal! My family and I packed up and moved to northern CO for better health care and I'm glad I chose to go to Cheyenne VA! Amazing staff, you're never left without answers and help! Volunteers are great and by the handfuls! Special hello to Ken! Everyone always has a smile and willing to help! Very fast with everything they do! Just cant say enough, blessed with the hands of the surgeons! Honesty of the teams and staff! Honestly warms my heart to be able to be cared for by this facility. Even a special recognition to the Caregiver Support Team for the help not only with myself, but my wife!! DIRECTOR KEEP DOING WHAT YOU'RE DOING! AMAZING JOB! THANK YOU!!! Sincerely, THANK YOU!!! GLAD TO CALL THIS PLACE HOME! Loveland VA, wonderful as well. Heading to review for that one next!

I was seen in the ER last year and received EXCELLENT care. This year, my friend had been having difficulty swallowing and pain and we went to the ER as we were driving through Cheyenne on our way to Idaho. They did a CT scan and discovered that he had a mass at the base of his esophagus which was cancer as well as metastases to his liver. He had the CT scan on Monday, was seen by an upper GI specialist on Tuesday, had an endoscopy on Wednesday, got his biopsy results from the endoscopy on Thursday, and will be seeing an oncologist next week. You cannot get this quality of care - this fast - at any other VA that I've ever been to. I RV full time and I've been to VA hospitals from Alaska to Florida. THIS IS THE BEST VA HOSPITAL IN THE U.S.A. as far as I'm concerned. And as far as my friend is concerned. We are staying in Cheyenne for him to get his cancer treatment. In addition to all of this - the people are all so friendly, on a first name basis with us, recognize us in the hall, know us when we go in for an appointment, recognize our voice on the phone. I've been very upset about all of this and if someone sees me upset, they come over to offer a word of comfort or a hug. I had to see a counselor on an emergency basis because this was such a shock to me - the fact that my friend may die - and I was able to see a counselor within 10 minutes, and then returned that afternoon to start therapy for the duration of our time here. You just can't get better care than this ANYWHERE. It's like a small town hospital with all the personal care, but the professional skills and equipment as well.

I was treated in the emergency room on May 20, 2019 after suffering from heart palpitations and chest pain. I received immediate attention and I am very grateful for all the awesome staff that was involved. They explained every thing that they were doing and listened to all my concerns. I was followed up with additional testing throughout the week. Thanks Cheyenne VAMC.

Scot Simons Jr

I want to thank the VA for getting my life back on track. I got on here way back gave them a bad rating. But I tell you what, the DAV has been tremendous in help and support. Medical side has gotten better. Also want to thank all higher ups for meeting with me and getting me squared away, I deeply appreciate it. Again thank you Cheyenne VA for what you are getting done. God Bless....

Pamela Michelle

Best VA experience by far! Husband and I came from Nebraska for an appointment and it went quiet & smooth. From replacing a VA card to travel compensation, staff was knowledgeable and competent, which is not always the case at other VA centers. Great experience

John

The Cheyenne VA has provided nothing but excellent care for both myself and my Dad the Doctors, nurses and Receptionists are always friendly and caring. They go above and beyond to provide the best care possible.

I struggled for months working with civilian doctors trying to find out what in the world was going on with me. Finally I Took myself to the Cheyenne VA ER and the VA hospital admitted me into their hospital and the neurologist, mri staff, ct scan staff and the rest of the team did an amazing job finding out what was wrong with me and then referred me into the community to a really good neurosurgeon in Loveland to fix my problem. I am forever grateful for the service, respect and hospitality that they provided to me.

Dale wood

Outstanding doctors, nurses, therapists and CNA's. Very impressed with Dr. Cannor, Dr. Evans, and Dr. Martin. Outstanding support from the PT and OT Department and its Director Mr. Bryon Long. I had the opportunity to be under the care of all 15 Therapists during the course of my stay. A few of the therapists names that I remember are - Josh, Marci, Terry, Pete, Terry, Bryon, Susan, Ryan, and Kelly. The staff at Community Living Center (CLC) were great. Very positive atmosphere and experience with the VA.

Superb VA care—professional & compassionate!

Jordan

Great experience! Walk-in for X-rays and lab; in and out in an hour. Staff are super friendly and helpful. Best VA facility I’ve ever been to!

Jamie gooch

When I first started my care with the va, I was lucky to get seen. In the last 2 years, the service has been great! They made it easy to schedule an appointment and order new meds.

I was extremely frightened of the VA because of what happened to me after a very painful and unneeded hernia surgery was performed on me in 1977 at SHAPE HQ Hospital in Mons, Belgium. It had been hypnotically suggested to me that I should get one there, a matter of how I was used as an espionage operative. During the procedure, a disinformation campaign was mounted that in the surgical staff was ordered to wait outside while men in suits came in. I was ordered "Not to breathe a word," and a hand was placed over my mouth. A clamp was used in the inguinal opening to clamp on a nexus of nerves to cause a great deal of pain, and I was told I'd feel that pain if anyone ever mentioned to me the name of my Agent Handler, CIA Dir. GHWB, or "Intelligence" in any way. "The Man With Small Feet" directed this operation. I was told to go to the VA in about 10 years, as they'd "Sewn it up too tight and ask for a tuneup surgery." I did, and found myself before HI Judge Richard Komo on false gun registration charges, and three years of hearings, unemployed, as each was preempted by the Prosecutor demanding my "Commitment." It seems the VA doctor, Dr. Pittenger, hoped to find damaging homosexually-related blackmail material on my former Agent Handler, and they wished to interrogate me in a hospital setting. I think you get my drift. Well, I refused to be interrogated, my military orders as given to me, and Judge Komo threw me into MCCC until I broke. Homosexuality was the main interrogatory theme with the other prisoners there, as was it again here, in another false incarceration, in Wyoming, Dick Cheney Land. Finally I hurt my back and agreed to go to TAMC, where I could hopefully talk to an Army Officer with a security clearance. Capt. Timothy Berigan not only had me sign promotion papers, but ordered me to stay married to my cover wife, my field agent handler, for a set time. A covert intestinal biopsy was done for future disability proof of my Celiac's Disease (How I am used as a covert MI agent), but the Army continues to say they can't find my medical records "Because they're being held by an unknown agency," so I remain impoverished. A VA doctor, Dr. Pittenger, obviously wanted to have me committed to a hospital setting, where medically based interrogation could take place. And the APA, the Powers Who Be with the VA, could find desired seemingly homosexually-related blackmail material on the CIA Director. There were many a false orchestration to that effect, and the known-to-be-incoming Clinton and Obama infiltrators swallowed it all hook, line, and sinker. Now they roast over the hot coals, and there will be more... I update this 2/19 as President Trump drains the Swamp and I'm about to be pulled in out of the Cold. So, finally, a local eye doctor suggested I go to the local VA clinic for cataract removal and hearing aids, which really improved my quality of life. where things have truly changed from that modology. I've been treated with respect, decency, and forthrightness.

I'm on my way to Cheyenne va from Asheville NC for an inpatient program and have been communicating with Terri with the PRRTP. I am very pleased with the communication and availability as well as John with the travel coordination. Helping to make the trip out as free from anxiety as possible. Thank you

Nora Lechler

I love all the gals in the women's clinic but the mental health needs some help. After waiting for 4 months I received a call today where they have referred me to an outside provider. Just don't get me started on a long rant about them!

Tom Staples

Great care. Patient-oriented staff.

Flight Medic76

Best VA hospital in the Western US. The staff always goes the extra mile to provide excellent care.

ER was fantastic! In and out. Was bleeding from left ear. They saw me right away. I seem to have cut my ear canal in my sleep. Greatly relieved.

Chad Kopplin

I was able to see someone right away and all staff, were courteous and thorough.

Gertrude Smith

I have always been treated very well by the staff. If I cant find where I need to be and I look lost, someone always stops and asks if they can help me. I have been taken care of and enjoy going here.
