Identifying challenges and gaps to convenient VA health care in the fast growing Plano market, VA North Texas Health Care System set out in 2012 to bring VA outpatient services to Plano area Veterans.

Plano VA Outpatient Clinic, located at 3804 W. 15th St., opened for patient care Aug. 31 implementing aspects of whole health in its construction and design and is the first VA clinic to assign full-time health coaches to each Patient Aligned Care Team.

The state of the art clinic is approximately 10,000 sq ft and provides integrated, holistic primary care, mental health, telemedicine, laboratory and x-ray services in an environment designed for healing. Alternative therapies such as acupuncture, clinical massage, and a women’s clinic enrich physical healing and support the whole health pathway to help Veterans reach their overall health goals.

The newly activated Plano VA Outpatient Clinic is VA’s initial footprint in the expansion plans for the Plano market,’ said VA North Texas Director Jeff Milligan. Construction of a new estimated 17,000 sq. ft. specialty care clinic has been approved and will begin the initial design phase in FY 17.

  1. Let’s review a journalist 5 W’s. Where – would be a nice addition in this article. 71 square miles of Plano. How about listing a street?

  2. Fantastic! I have waited for an Outpatient Clinic like this since 1995!
    Until now, I have been driving back and forth from the Denton VA Outpatient CBOC for my monthly, quarterly, and annual checkups!
    The only other alternative left me was to drive to the Bonham VA hospital or the downtown Dallas VA hospital which is like a war zone with barbed wire fencing and police patrol towers!
    I feel sorry for the guys who suffered captivity in Nam because this places parking lot would bring back memories!
    Thank you VA for recognizing a dire need for better health care closer to our homes!
