On Friday, November 8^th, Congressman Henry Cuellar will provide remarks at the opening of the newly expanded Veteran’s Affairs Outpatient Clinic in Laredo.   

“The expansion of the clinic into a new facility almost doubles the amount of current space and provides more services to the veterans living in Webb County,” said Congressman Henry Cuellar (D-TX28).  “Even before I was sworn into Congress, I announced a plan to build a new clinic in Laredo so that veterans would not have to travel 150 miles to receive care in San Antonio.  This will save the veterans and their families time, expenses, and inconvenience and will finally provide veterans with the care and support they deserve close to home.”

The new facility provides extended primary services including coverage of mental health, nutrition, women’s health, podiatry, dental, tele-health, and social work services.
