VA Hospital Dentist Office

I called the Va dental clinic on Thursday 29th 2026 and Friday 30th 2026 They never answer the phone the rang almost 30 minutes before someone answered THE MSA’s are rude won’t let you talk they talk over the VETERAN they are belligerent the Doctors are also horrible at referrals for outside community care services they try and intimidate bully veterans to come to this horrible clinic to get care for there Dental needs they make you wait until the pain level is so excruciating to fix any dental work instead of being proactive and fixing the problem before it gets to that level OMG I have panic attacks when I call this clinic. No one should feel intimidated or threaten to get the care that they need from the Michael E Debakey VA Hospital dental care clinic. Listen VETERANS START HOLDING THE

Been trying for several days to reach someone to get referral. Wait at least an hour each time I’ve called. I can’t be on phone waiting for someone to decide to answer for these long periods of time. This is really deterring and can see why a lot of veterans just give up or just do not want to deal with the VA.

Some of the reviews are funny to read as one vet to another. The wait is longer than desired, but we don't mind waiting if these older vets get seen. My wife mention that there's a young lady who was very pleasant with specific ethnic vets versus the rest when I was in with the doctor. Young ladies being short with fellows like us is no news. At my age, young ladies acting a fool causes no stress to my day. But let me catch someone snapping at my wife, that's a different story

Dear Esteemed Veterans and Dental Comrades, If you're in the market for a dental experience that doubles as a test of your patience and a throwback to the era when snail mail was faster than customer service, then the Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center Dental Clinic is your utopia. First off, let's talk about appointment scheduling – it's like playing a game of "Where's Waldo?" but with dates. With a modest six-month waiting period, you have ample time to reflect on your life choices, grow a magnificent beard (even if you're unable to), or learn a new language. It's the perfect opportunity to embrace the art of waiting. Attempting to reschedule? The department's phone is akin to a mythical creature - often talked about, but never seen (or heard, in this case). It's a masterclass in playi
