The military (non licensed) practitioners are very limited in what
they are allowed to do on US soil so you can't blame them. The flaws
in the US based military centers can be placed on licensed
professionals or the politicians, your choice.
VA facilities are all ruled by civilian law and practice. I was the
inspector on the VA hospital in Port Charlotte and it was a STATE
project. (or I would not have been there)
Sorry, I don't believe that the reason returning vets with serious
physical and emotional problems are not treated properly by veterans
hospitals is because of "civilian law and practice."
Oh, and "non-licensed" medical practitioners should be severely limited
as to what they are allowed to do on U.S. soil in medical or related
fields.
You really are a fan of the home hobbyist approach. If you ever need a
stent, I hope you find the right non-licensed, non-doctor Army/Navy/Air
Force tech to perform the surgery for you.
We are not talking about a stent or open heart surgery here. If I just
need a few stitches or some other kind of emergency care I would be
perfectly happy with a guy who was patching up marines, injured in
combat as I would some guy who went to a Guatemala medical school and
got licensed here.
Some of us have higher standards for the medical practitioners we allow
to work on us.
