VA expanding radiology services in Delaware

A new Radiology Suite has been added to the Wilmington VA Medical Center’s Kent County VA Clinic located in the Blue Hen Mall Plaza at 655 South Bay Rd, Suite 3C in Dover, Delaware. Appointments for the new Radiology Suite will begin Oct. 28 beginning with CT scans and X-ray services to begin Oct. 30.
“Expanding in-house radiology services with X-ray and CT in lower Delaware will help reduce unnecessary travel-time for our Veterans,” said Vamsee Potluri, executive director of the Wilmington VA Medical Center. “This is one of many examples of how we are taking feedback and expanding resources for our Veterans, making it easier for them to receive care proximate to home."

The new radiology suite will assist in giving Veterans better access to X-rays and computed tomography scans also known as CT scans. Previously Veterans in Kent or Sussex County had to travel to the Wilmington VA to get these services or use a provider in the community.

To expand services for Veterans in Delaware, in 2021, the VA moved into the 29,0000 square foot space at the Blue Hen Mall Plaza. Radiology services will be an addition to the clinic’s general health care, eye care, podiatry, physical therapy behavioral health, women’s health, blood work, vaccinations and more that is now offered.
Veterans who are not currently enrolled in VA health can enroll by stopping by any VA Clinic, online at www.va.gov, or by calling 1-877-222-8387.
