The Villages VA Outpatient Clinic

The Villages Veterans Affairs (VA) Outpatient Clinic (OPC) is designed to enhance access to health care for Veterans residing in the surrounding rural areas. As the health care system continuously works to transform delivery of care for Veterans in North Florida and South Georgia, this facility not only meets the needs of Veterans today but assist in facing the challenges of tomorrow.

The Villages Outpatient Clinic provides a broad range of general medical services for the primary care patient, as well as a variety of specialty care services. This clinic serves acute and chronically ill eligible Veterans. Our Veteran patient population requires a complexity of care that ranges from minor health care needs to urgent care. Veterans requiring hospitalization are assessed, stabilized and transferred to either local facilities or to the Gainesville VA Medical Center according to the urgency of their needs. Procedures or specialty care not provided by this clinic are referred to the Gainesville VA Medical Center.

• Since originally opening in The Villages in October 2010, The Villages OPC has experienced continued growth in both the number of individual Veterans accessing the facility and number of appointments requested and completed.
• As of January 2021, nearly 15,700 Veterans were enrolled to receive care.
• The clinic is approximately 95,000 sq. ft.
• The design of the interior of the building was constructed to meet VA’s Patient Aligned Care Team model which will help improve the efficiency of services provided and customer service.
• Since the clinic’s opening, The Villages OPC has added GI procedures, battlefield acupuncture, primary care dermatology, joint injections, and telehealth clinics.
• Clinic hours of operation are Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Wednesday 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., and Saturday 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
