Is the information in this article From DVIDS an indicator of problems within the medical care system for Active Duty military?

I said article poorly written.
I'm not sure where the author was going with it. Great recovery story but, it was a three act play with only two acts.

No, the Soldier felt there was a problem, got it checked out, received medical treatment and returned to duty....the fact that she was back in status nine months after a torn ACL & Meniscus is a compliment to her determination and quality care. This is a good news story here.

SSG Robert Webster
CSM Michael J. Uhlig How do you respond to an Active Duty Soldier going to an off base hospital for initial diagnosis and treatment, instead of the TMC or the base hospital?

I answered YES. Unless the article is misleading or poorly written, the information about the initial care for this soldier's injury, indicates to me that there is a problem that is not being reported very well. Focus has been on the Wounded Warrior units and the VA Medical system in the news, but what about the rest of the soldiers that are injured in the day to day operations of the military and their medical care?
