Dorn VA hospital opens 6th clinic

FLORENCE — The Dorn VA Medical Center in Columbia opened its sixth outpatient clinic to serve a growing population of veterans in the Pee Dee.

The new clinic opened Wednesday in Florence. It has more than 11,000 square feet and nearly doubles the size of the building it replaces.

VA officials say the old clinic served 1,600 veterans in 1999 and 5,500 veterans last year. The new clinic is offering primary care as well as mental health services.

VA officials say another such clinic is to open in Spartanburg in two weeks.

The Ralph H. Johnson VA Medical Center in Charleston serves veterans in the southern part of the state.
