Primary Care

Primary care is first-contact care for persons with any undiagnosed sign, symptom, or health concern. Primary care includes health promotion, disease prevention, health maintenance, counseling, patient education, diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic illnesses. All appointments for Primary Care are scheduled through our appointment line. DoD ID cards are required for beneficiaries aged 10 and older.
