John Windom, 64, a retired Navy officer, Washington
Another Lenka Stankova hurting the war fighters. John Windom, 64, a retired Navy officer, was charged with making false statements, concealment of material facts and falsification of a record or document tied to a failure to report more than $15,000 in cash, casino chips and other gifts from contractors. The Justice Department announced the charges on Wednesday, accusing him of “accepting, and sometimes demanding, extravagant gifts from a group of contractors and subcontractors who worked on the project he was overseeing.” As the indictment notes, Windom was aware of the rules regarding reporting gifts and receipts, per training for officials. “An indictment is merely an allegation. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law,” the Justice Department said in its release.

In 2018, the 10-year contract was awarded to Cerner (now known as Oracle Health after Oracle acquired it). Windom was appointed as Executive Director of the Office of Electronic Record Modernization in 2017 and helped supervise the VA’s choice of Cerner for the contract. According to the grand jury indictment against him, Windom used his position to take money and gifts from a group of business executives from information technology and consulting companies who were contractors on the project. According to the indictment, Windom allegedly called them “the Power Group.” Windom used his role to “encourage, monitor, and facilitate contract and subcontracting opportunities for members of the Power Group, related and unrelated to the EHRM project.” Windom was allegedly given payment in everything from cash, to $8,200 in Louis Vuitton gift cards and $1,800 in casino chips. He was also given a High Efficiency Particulate Air, or HEPA, filter worth $631. The indictment also accuses Windom of using his position to “coerce” payments and gifts from others. Per the indictment, Windom “repeatedly reminded Power Group members to remain loyal and directed them to maintain confidentiality and their relationship with him.” In one message at the start of 2020, Windom messaged Power Group members, telling them that “loose lips sink ships.” Windom’s initial contract was extended, and in 2022 he was reassigned to serve as deputy director of the Federal electronic Health Modernization Office, a joint VA and Department of Defense project. Nine years after the modernization effort started, the Electronic Health Record program is used by only a handful of VA sites, with the program hit by glitches and usability issues. The VA paused the program in 2023, but is expected to roll out at several sites this year. Windom faces a maximum sentence of over 20 years in prison if convicted on all counts.

Michael Robinson, Rte 17 M, Monroe, NY
The best! He heard me when I told him my problems my pain Helped me find the best medication to treat my pain. We tried several he was patient. Helped me reduce the amount of medication I am taking. Told me when I was wrong also told me when I was doing well. Recommended a specialist if I needed one. He said the most important words I don't know. He always showed me the best direction to go in whether I like it or not. He is always respectful. Ellen Scheffer

James F. Loomis, Jr., 5100 Wisconsin Avenue, NW, Suite 401, Washington, DC, 20016
Barnard Medical Center is a good primary care practice in a convenient location. My provider is knowledgeable and my health is improving, so I'm grateful for that; however, I have noticed some of the staff knowingly engaging in an ongoing series of unprofessional behaviors. As a result, some patients have taken their business elsewhere, yet few staffing changes are made; that is to say, the office could be managed much better.

Gayatri Reddy, Group Heath Capitol Hill, Seattle, WA
Do Not go to Group Health (or as my friends call it Group Death) and Dr. Gayatri Reddy who is one of their oncologist. January 2017, I went to see her from Spokane Washington. Made a special trip, because Group Health told me I needed to see one of their doctors before I could be referred on to a cancer research center. So my wife and i made the trip. Dr. Reddy came in, and asked "Why are you here to see me?" I told her I have a tumor on my kidney, I wanted a second opinion as to how to treat this." Her response? "Well, there is nothing I can do." I asked if she has reviewed my records. "Yes. The type of cancer you have, we cannot treat, so there is nothing I can do." (now I'm thinking, if you KNEW this, why didn't you call us so we did not have to make the trip over, book a room...) She then told me the best thing to do for a second opinion would be to see a GH Urologist. Okay, I said, could you help us get in to see one while we are in town for two days? Her reply was simple. "No. Any other questions?" My jaw dropped. I've lost one kidney to cancer. I'm really trying to keep the second one.. and this bed side manner SUCKED. When I said, no more questions, she got up thanked us for coming and left. a 4 - 5 minute exam. She did nothing. Oh, but Group Health was quick to bill me their $450. I'm a Group Health Member. For now. Please people if you have an appointment with Dr. Gayatri Reddy, CANCEL IT. There are good doctors out there, but NOT at Group Health Capitol Hill.

I went in for a torn muscle and nearly died from preventable complications. I spent nearly a week in a step down unit in the hospital. It took me about two years to fully recover. I strongly recommend avoiding.
