Veterans Voice Concerns Over Health Care Needs

Home » Blog » Veterans Voice Concerns Over Health Care Needs

Veterans living in the St. George area were invited to a town hall meeting Wednesday night to express concerns they have and to hear from medical personnel from the St. George Veterans Outpatient Clinic and Vet Center.

Dozens of veterans came to the Southern Utah Veterans Home in Ivins.
