0 Jon1371 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Every time VA cancels one of my appointment, it shows up that I cancelled it. Same thing happens when they reschedule. Maybe it's part of the scheduling shenanigans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 georgiapapa Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 In the past I periodically checked medical appointments on the e-benefits web site. On at least three different occasions I discovered the VAMC had scheduled appointments for me but failed to call or send me a notice. I had not changed my address or telephone number. I would have missed the appointments if I had not checked the medical schedule on e-benefits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 HadIt.com Elder john999 Posted July 9, 2014 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted July 9, 2014 My VA psychiatrist changed our appointment to a time when I cannot make it. I called to reschedule and it is 45 days later. I would say that I need a private shrink paid for by the VA. I have never heard of a private shrink making someone wait 45 days for a rescheduled appointment. I did not miss the appointment. The shrink changed the time to very early in the morning and I have to drive 20 miles through rush hour traffic to get there plus I have sleep apnea. She knows this but it is just tough **&^ for me. All she does is push pills anyway. No therapy. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
