Dr. Samuel is smart but lazy, never on time for appointments, often cancels an appointment that is hard to get anyway in the VA system. Dr. Samuel always seems in a rush to get you out of her office. For the past few months, she's been on some medical leave; I'm told she may not return, and I am having problems getting in to another doctor because the VA system is so short-staffed.
