“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Wellsboro veterans outpatient clinic. Recently, the Wellsboro veterans outpatient clinic in Tioga County reopened after nearly a year of renovations. Our veterans have faced challenges on the battlefield and, too often, at home when seeking care. Reopening this facility is a step toward eliminating those barriers and providing better access to health services, mental health support, and the resources our veterans need to thrive. The new state-of-the-art clinic has expanded to provide podiatry, telehealth, and optometry services. Additionally, the clinic will have specialty physicians who travel to Wellsboro. Having spent nearly 30 years in the healthcare industry, I understand the vital importance of access to quality healthcare in rural communities and have become a strong advocate for increased access, affordability, and quality of care. Mr. Speaker, our veterans deserve the utmost care, and the Wellsboro VA Clinic can provide essential services for those who fought for our freedoms. ____________________”
