This Specialty Primary Care clinic is exclusively for newly returned combat Veterans to include National Guard and Reservists. We're here to serve Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF), Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF), and Operation New Dawn (OND) Veterans.
Our Mission:
To help Veterans and their families navigate the VA system in getting the benefits and services they have earned. We realize readjustment can be difficult, that’s why the OEF/OIF team is here to walk Veterans through the process and make things as easy as possible.
What to Expect:
- Comprehensive physical and referrals to any specialty care needed
- Case Management: financial, work, school, housing and claims
- Readjustment Counseling: address problems with sleep, relationships, anger management and stress.
