Velocity Urgent Care is a Veterans Administration Authorized Urgent Care Provider

Hampton Roads has a rich military history and Velocity Urgent Care has a unique opportunity to make a difference in the lives of our area’s veterans. In the past, Veterans Administration beneficiaries have struggled with access to health care.  Thanks to a new law, the VA Mission Act of 2018, VA beneficiaries can now be seen in urgent care. Velocity Urgent Care is currently the only urgent care in Hampton Roads that is participating in this pilot program.
