Yes on both counts, I live in the UP in Michigan, about as far north as you can go with out hitting canada on the east side of the state. The VA clinic I go to is small, the staff seem good to me, but I do not have anything else to compare it to. The my doc is trying hard so that I do not have to go to a hospital.

Yes he did, after all the yelling. He always does, but it never seems to solve anything on his end. He never seems to change, else it is so slow that I do not notice. One the one hand I know it is not doing my mental heath any good with him being here, on the other having him move will not either.
