Letters from Veterans and Families
Veterans and their family members often send numerous letters of praise and gratitude to the Tuscaloosa VA Medical Center. These letters serve as a true testament to the compassionate care provided daily by the medical center's hard working staff to our nation's heroes.
Here are a few letters and comments that we would like to share:
To the Tuscaloosa VA Medical Center Director,
Sir, This was my first visit to the VA I tried to get enrolled sine 2003 until now. I would write to Jackson, MS, they would send me paper work. But I was always turned down because of my income. I decided to apply because my income recently changed. I went mostly to get enrolled in VA, they gave me a full exam, bIood work, EKG, I was treated very well. Every one was very nice to me and showed me respect. Now I have a follow appointment with a Dr. soon.

To the Director of the Tuscaloosa VA Medical Center,
I'm writing this statement concerning Mrs. Bragg's performance in the Nail Clinic. She was friendly, caring, and very professional while performing her job in the clinic. We as Veterans really appreciate the type of care and behavior displayed by our VA Healthcare workers. Please let Mrs. Bragg's know how much the Veterans and myself appreciate her. Thank you very much.
Letter from Combat Veteran ~ December 21st, 2022
Dear Tuscaloosa VA Medical Center,
I would be forever in your debt, if you could reward my social worker, Mrs. Mitchell, for going above and beyond her duty to keep her patients safe, healthy, and well taken care of. She even came and got me from where I was staying ,during her lunch break, where I was in a hostile situation and got me placed in the Salvation Army. She actually cares about her Veterans and would do most anything for them.
Letter from Veteran ~ November 29th, 2022
To the Tuscaloosa VA:
Dear Mrs. Nicholson,
I hope this letter find you in good Health, Faith and Spirit.
Thank you for the time, and expertise you have given me while my stay here at the Tuscaloosa VA Medical Center. I know you work as a Case Managers, however, you are more like a "Life Coach" to me. Because of your enthusiasm, dedication and coaching me along the way I were able to complete this program.
There have been some difficulties time along the way, but you were there to
help me work things out. You help me to find my "WHY" for being in the program.
I have had many deaths in the past 2 years, as well as family issues, but you encourage me to hang on in here. Words really can't explain the emotions I am feeling right now.
I know with the help of God and your prayers I will be able to take my rightful place BACK into world.
Again thank you for a job well done.
