Every Veterans Health Care Experience Matters!
The DC VA Medical Center team relies on your feedback to continually improve care, service and processes. Shortly after an appointment or inpatient stay at the main medical center or clinic, you may receive a Survey of Health Experiences of Patients (SHEP) notice or link through text or email or you may receive the survey via postal mail. Please submit your SHEP survey to help us to better serve you in the future.

The survey is voluntary and your responses are confidential. Speak with your VA Office of Patient Experience and Advocacy, 202-745-8588, when you have compliments and concerns.

To welcome the holiday season, the DC VAMC Executive Leadership Team hosted the Annual Tree Lighting Ceremony, December 3, 2025, bringing together Veterans, caregivers and VA staff. The festive event included holidays carols, warm cider, and lots of photos with Santa and Mrs. Claus! The light from our DC VAMC holiday tree serves as a beacon--a reminder that even in the dark days of winter, we shine bright when we come together.

A Farewell to Honor a Legacy of Health Care Excellence:
After 20 distinguished years of VA service, the Washington DC VA Medical Center Team bids farewell to Dr. Charles Faselis, our Chief of Staff, as he heads to Palo Alto VA Medical Center in California.

Described by colleagues and VA executives as a "quadruple threat," Dr. Faselis excelled as a clinician, researcher, educator, and leader--touching many lives through exceptional patient care, groundbreaking research, mentoring generations of residents, and fostering a culture of collaboration and excellence.

Thank you for two decades of providing Veterans with safe, quality care. The West Coast is fortunate to gain such an extraordinary leader!
