The JHQVAMC increased access to care for Veterans by adding specialty care services to its Knoxville clinic network. The Knoxville VA Specialty Care Clinic opened July 18, 2022, and offers centralized specialty care in line with the VA’s commitment to providing quality care to our nation’s Veterans.

The medical center implemented the addition of services to meet the demand of increasing Veteran utilization in the region and to promote a culture that is caring, compassionate, competent, and quality-oriented. Its goal is to provide timely access and excellent care for all JHQVAMC patients.

“We are excited about the new specialty care clinic and the opportunity to increase access to high-quality VA specialty care closer to home for Veterans in the Knoxville area,” said Dean B. Borsos, JHQVAMC director.  “It is our privilege and honor to care for our Veterans, America’s heroes, and we are pleased to expand VA specialty care services in the Knoxville community.”

The clinic is located at 1612 Downtown West Blvd., and includes pulmonary, physical therapy, orthopedics, and gastroenterology services. Dermatology and podiatry services are scheduled to begin at a later date. The clinic hours of operation are 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
