The tentative opening is scheduled for August. Our clinic here at TV only does simple things like shots/bloodwork etc.
I have to go to Gainsville for most other things at the present. When the new center opens in August I will be able to see the lung Dr. here instead.
Some of the Veterans from Leesburg are trying to transfer to the TV's now and are being told that they will be placed on a waiting list 'till August.
My understanding is that the Vets from Leesburg now have to go to Tampa (we go to Gainsville) and once the new center is opened it will save them a lot of travel.
When I first moved here from N.W. Indiana all I had to do was go to TV clinic to transfer my records......not to Gainsville or Tampa.
An interesting thing I found was that the General Contractor (Hamstra Builders ) is from the same small town area I came from...Wheatfield/Demotte
