HE'S 101, BUT HE KEEPS MOVING: World War II Veteran George Poleske is blind, hard of hearing and mostly needs a wheelchair to get around. But none of that stops him from being as physically fit as possible. He takes part in physical therapy five days a week at the Milwaukee VA Medical Center, motivated by the special bond he has forged with health technician Mary Kassens.

Life happens - we understand. If you ever find that something has come up and you need to cancel your VA appointment, just give your clinic a heads-up. Doing so helps another Veteran get care even sooner.
Please call the clinic where your appointment is scheduled, so we can give the appointment time to another Veteran. You can also manage your appointments via our phone appointment system, the VEText messaging system or online: https://www.va.gov/health-care/manage-appointments/
