VA Medical Center

I am a veteran who was visiting Akron OH from Atlanta GA for a family reunion. while we were driving up, i think i must’ve slept in the wrong position or something because my neck was KILLING me! i kept taking ibuprophen, but it got worse as the night went on. about 1:30 in the morning, i told my dad i needed to go to the doctor because it was throbbing and i couldn’t sleep. so both my parents, my grandfather and i drove around to each VA clinic in the area we could find.
we could not find a nearby emergency VA hospital (that was open) to save our lives! we ended up calling the VA hospital in Atlanta. they transferred us to this one in Cleveland, which was about a good 40 min drive from where we were. by then the pain was so unbearable that i was in tears and curled up into a little ball.
when we got there, we still couldn’t find it because the address was kinda quirky. i was just so extremely agitated. when we finally go there, we went straight to the emergency room. i didn’t even have to wait long before they put me in an exam room. everyone was really nice and the doctor (a gorgeous tall blonde female) told me i was having severe muscle spasms. they gave me a shot and a perscription that they filled before i left the exam room.
great hospital, but awful directions.
