Grand Opening Of Veterans Affairs Clinics In McMinn County And Roane County Improves Veterans’ Access To Health Care

WASHINGTON− Over the last week, two Veterans Affairs clinics opened in the third district of Tennessee. The clinics in McMinn County and Roane County will vastly expand veterans’ access to quality health care in East Tennessee. After the opening of these clinics, Congressman Fleischmann released the following statement.

“This past week, the third district witnessed the grand opening of two Veterans Affairs clinics in McMinn County and Roane County. As the proud son of a WWII veteran, ensuring proper veterans’ care has always been a top priority of mine. For years, I helplessly watched my father struggle to find assistance in the over burdened VA system. The opening of these two clinics demonstrates a commitment to improve veterans’ access to quality health care in East Tennessee. This is a significant victory for the brave men and women who protected our country and a giant step toward ensuring veterans receive the care they need and so rightly deserve.”
