Mission

To provide the highest level of service, care, and treatment possible for all Active Duty soldiers, retirees, and beneficiaries seen by the Allergy/Immunology Service.

Patient's Information:

Upon arriving to the clinic please check in with the front desk before receiving your injection.

Due to Allergy/Immunology clinic changes there may be short delays for Allergy injections.

Patients receiving an allergy injection are advice not to leave the clinic area for 30 minutes. This also applies to parents of children who are under 18 years of age who have received an injection. Parents cannot leave their children unattended, in case of a possible emergent treatment requiring parental permission.

Patients with asthma need to make a follow-up appointment with their provider every six (6) months.

Non-asthma patients should schedule an appointment at least annually, or as needed.
