Don't be a no-show!
McDonald Army Health Center wants your help in reducing the number of "No Shows". Patients who miss appointments or arrive late by 10 minutes or more to their scheduled appointments are considered "No Shows", this limits the number of available appointments. The Health Center request that beneficiaries cancel at least 24 hours prior to your appointment.
Walk-in Hours for Child Immunizations
The McDonald Army Health Center Pediatric Clinic will not provide any walk-in services for Pediatric immunizations to include flu vaccinations beginning 01 October 2019. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. We hope to have pediatric walk-in immunizations available to you again in the future.
All new patients and those that have not been seen in the last (12 months) will need to schedule an appointment for immunizations with their healthcare team.
