VA Connecticut Healthcare System - Waterbury CBOC provides behavioral healthcare services and mental health treatment services to Veterans and military personnel in the Waterbury, Connecticut area. If addiction is the primary diagnosis, clients may need to seek treatment at a drug rehab center. VA Connecticut Healthcare System – Waterbury CBO
I was a patient there and Dr. Ong was absolutely amazing. She went well above and beyond by making sure I was placed in the Polytrauma Care Team. Dr. Ong made sure I had all my meds, when I needed someone to talk to I went to her and she listened to me and offered her insight. Dr. Ong was the best Primary Care doctor I ever had and her and nurse Mike made sure I had all my updated vaccinations. Nurse Mike made me feel welcome and very approachable, we talked about sports, about hobbies, and he was one of the nicest people I have ever met. I was a patient there from June 2024 until November 2025. I relocated but I wished I did not and now I regret it I may go back to Waterbury just so Dr. Ong, Nurse Mike, and The Polytrauma Care Team can handle all of my care. Because at the Waterbury primary care clinic and at the West Haven VA I feel that I received the best care for my Neurological, TBI, Cognitive Function, Mental Health, and, Occupational Therapy needs.

This is absolutely the best of the best medical offices I have ever been to for medical assistance. Every person who works there is friendly, helpful, and polite. I have been a Connecticut resident most of my life, but I have lived in Pennsylvania for a few years, Texas too, and have used their VA medical centers as well. All of them were very good, but if I have to pick one that I believe was/is the absolute Best, I would chose, hands down, Waterbury VA .

2025 February 11 Updated: Things have improved and levelled out. Catholic charities is truly lucky to have Ashley Castillo leading the Front End. She's as wonderful as it comes! It's too bad we lost APRN Maria Ruiz as she too is one of the ones that care. Over my 9 years, and watching over 45 staff come and go, these two are among the top 3 staff that have been at Catholic Charities and Remain there. Thank you both . 2023 January 24 Updated: Sadly Catholic Charities has updated. They go through staff on a weekly basis and all of the good staff have quit for reason. A fish rots from the head down. This used to be a safe place to go, it's no longer the case and has left people mostly myself in dire straits regarding medication management. J 2019 January 24 Updated: Couldn't be a better team from the front desk to the back offices. This is as good as it gets. Professional, Courteous & One of a kind. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

It Works If You Want To Stay Clean. I Was There In 2018. March To June. I Had No Cigarettes, And Other Clients Looked Out For Me When I Was In The Dumps. I Had A 2 Year Cap.

(After I.O.P. & Court Was Over.) The Second Time Was Better-Came With Money, Cigarettes, My Own Clothes. (First Was A J.R.I.) Food Was Much Better And Waaay More Of It The First Time. That And The Clinicians Were Always More Prepared, (With Experience.) The First Time.

Dr. Sha Nawaz is a smart and competent diagnostician. He is not a talk therapist and I understand why some may find him a little impersonal or clinical. But he knows the science, he knows the meds, and often, he knows what's going on with you when everyone else was unable to provide a clear diagnosis and treatment recommendation. The office is very busy but I've never had to wait for more than a few minutes to see the doctor. Calls for refills will get a response within 24 hours. Sooner in emergencies. I have no experience with their counselors but I've heard good things.
