Dear Ms Tinch, I am a FFX county senior and had to use the Mount Vernon Hospital ER late Saturday evening for a dog bite. The service I received at the attending ER physician was TOTALLY below medical standards for my type of injury. I had to go to the Fort Belvoir Hospital ER several hours later to get the appropriate treatment. The ER service at Fort Belvoir was truly exceptional. I have absolutely no plans of ever using the Mount Vernon Hospital ER service again. The attending “physician?” had absolutely no clue on how to disinfect a deep punctured bite
