VA Augusta Health Care System dedicated its new standalone Women Veterans Health Clinic this week on the 8th Floor of Building 1 at 820 Sebastian Way in Augusta. The new clinic opened in late 2025 and offers a wide range of services to women Veterans - VA Augusta’s fastest-growing patient population.

“This new clinic empowers us to offer women expanded, holistic care in a private setting,” said Dr. Jennifer Woodley, VA Augusta’s Women Veterans Program Manager. “Our women Veterans have earned this level of high-quality, compassionate care.”

The new clinic serves women Veterans with:
Full on-site primary care teams
Cervical cancer and STI screenings
Birth control, pre-conception, and reproductive health counseling
Maternity care and gynecology
Pelvic floor rehab

Other existing services, including laboratory, pharmacy, radiology, bone density, and mammography, will continue at VA Augusta’s two medical center campuses.
