At VAMC Salem, we have established a number of procedures to assist you in getting an appointment without a long delay. Our goals are simple —

• you should be able to see your primary care provider within one to two business days
• you should have faster access to speciality care

If you have received a postcard stating that you need to make an appointment, please call the Medical Center at (540) 982-2463 or 1-888-982-2463 and select option 6.

Changing Your Appointment

To cancel or reschedule an appointment call the Medical Center at (540) 982-2463 or 1-888-982-2463 and select option 2.

If you cannot keep an existing appointment, please contact us as soon as you are aware you cannot make your appointment. This will allow us to reschedule you sooner as well as schedule one of your fellow veterans for the original appointment date and time.
