VES Avis 4

Working here completely ruined my eye health. With tons of air vents just circulating air I developed dry eye disease and just after 6 months of working there I had to resign due to the irreversible damage to my eyes and no help from the company whatsoever other than making me come into the office after crying saying I needed to work from home due to the awful red and watery eyes I would get from just being in the building for less than an hour. I never had this condition before I worked there and now 4 years later I am suffering daily. Do not work there unless you want to develop dry eyes!! They don’t have normal air cons or heaters just air circulating(as apparently it’s better for the environment) biggest regret of my life.

By now everyone knows that VES is horrible. They take months before returning the DBQ and have all kinds of excuses. They schedule you at the last minute. Request another vendor from the VA. do not use VES. You can also upload a 4138 form requesting that the VA no longer use VES for your claims. For example they can use QTC or some other vendor but do not use VES. If all the veterans did this then VES would not get the contract

6 months after my claim had been reviewed and approved by the VA, i somehow was scheduled with yet another VES appointment. The Dr was working out of a chipractic clinic that had paper thin walls and spoke very loudly. I have no doubt that everyone in the clinic knew of my problems due to his poor bedside manner. He wouldn't accept my answers and kept trying to get me to answer questions in ways I didn't feel comfortable answering. He also couldnt understand why i didnt want to keep talking about my issues to yet another doctor, probably the 6th or 7th one that i've had to discuss these items with. Worse yet, he had never served and had no idea what I was talking about in most instances. And kept expressing the how he couldnt understand why, if i was having the issues while is was in why i wouldnt just take care of them then. How is someone who has never served going to advocate for me or anyone that has served? I got the feeling right away he was trying to disprove and downplay all of my claims and was definitely not trying to advocate for me like the VA says they will. It's all one big sham

I want to bring an organization to your attention named VES (Veterans Evaluation Services). They are contracted by the Veterans Administration to process medical evaluations for medical claims made by veterans.

Unfortunately, I do not have to many good things to say about VES. I have completed my scheduled medical evaluations but VES still refuses to finish processing the medical findings. We are going past the 90 day mark at this point and no updates are provided and I am kept in the dark even after inquiring about the status of the request. Furthermore, this delays any medical treatment that I have requested through the VA.

I am a man of principles that stands by many morals. This has been a common issue for many veterans including myself. I want to create awareness about this issue and work to prevent other veterans from experiencing this.

Mainly, the VA also needs to take accountability with the companies they choose to have contracts with.
