One of the best things you can do for him is to contact your US Congressman and the two US Senators. Call their local (not Washington DC) offices and ask to speak to the person in the office that handles constituent issues and then ask to set up a mtg. These are the folks that get things done and they are more than happy to help, I have always found. Good luck!
Like Bucksnbows posted these are the people to contact and hound them until they get it done.

VA in East Orange sucks. Lyons is like a college campus. American Legion no help, Dav no help.

Not trying to to be negative but have experienced this in the past with my sons friend who passed on the day before his 26th birthday after doing two tours in Iraq from cancer. They told him to go and see a dermatolgist totally missed diagnosed. And had to battle w/ East Orange to have other doctors look at him.

not every department is at both hospitals. east orange campus was selected as one of two va facilities in the nation doing research on iraq/afghantistan combat medical matters. i did some rehab there and was treated like a prince. yes, its in an urban area. an area filled with homeless, and otherwise destitute, veterans seeking help. brian.
