Changes in sick call hours

Attention to all active duty members on FLY status: Effective Sept. 1, the 412th Medical Group Flight Medicine Clinic no longer has sick call hours. Instead, the clinic has created same day appointments for those active duty members on FLY status that require acute care or return to fly/controller status. The 412th MDG says these changes allow for better utilization of staff and allow more flexibility to Edwards Airmen. This will also decrease wait times experienced by several Airmen presenting simultaneously for sick call. Airmen on FLY status that require acute care or need to be returned to fly/controller status, can call for a same day appointment (between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m.) by dialing (661) 277-7118, option 1, then option 3. As always, your flight surgeon is available to answer any medical questions or concerns.
