Enthusiastic Celebration Greets Groundbreaking for Myrtle Beach, South Carolina VA Outpatient Clinic
Numerous Grand Strand veterans and their families were present on May 31st to mark the groundbreaking for the Department of Veterans Affairs Outpatient Clinic in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Keynote speaker Major General and Medal of Honor recipient James E. Livingston, USMC (Ret.) recognized that this new clinic, planned for completion in late 2020, will provide significantly more convenient health care for area veterans. Currently, the closest VA facility is in Charleston, a two-hour drive.
The development and construction of the Myrtle Beach clinic is a joint venture between GUV Services, LLC, a Washington, D.C. veteran-owned business, and Carnegie Management and Development Corporation of Westlake, Ohio. The clinic, to be located at 1800 Airpark Drive near the Myrtle Beach International Airport, will be a two-story facility comprising over 100,000 square feet. The clinic is expected to provide primary care, mental health, dermatology, podiatry, physical and occupational therapy, prosthetics, optometry, audiology, blood collection and radiology services. In addition, the clinic will also feature a women’s health area and will allow for expansion of additional specialty services.
