I have no comparison as this is the only military medical facility that i've been to. It has it's good and bad moments. The staff as far as treatment of patients is hit and miss, my initial PCM was fabulous but when she left I was sacked with a PCM that is a total and complete a-hole. Of course tri-care doesn't make it super easy to change PCM's so I have yet to get a new one. Thankfully I haven't required any treatment as of late.
The ER can at times be either really great or really awful. Sometimes it feels like they just want to get you in and out as quick as possible without giving the full care we deserve. Sometimes it's great and they give awesome care, like when I had to take my daughter in for a nickle being caught in her throat. In the beginning I had to give a Maj. an ear full before something happened, once things were set into motion they did a great job and were quick to help her.
I hate that it takes what seems like forever to get appointments forcing you into the ER sometimes. As a result it backs up the ER and you can end up in there for several hours so be prepared.
Otherwise I've had some good experiences like with labor and delivery, women's health, immunization clinic and Peds.
