At James A. Haley Veterans’ Hospital, we have established a number of procedures to help you get 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 specialty care.

If you have received a postcard stating you need to make an appointment, call (813) 903-3650 or (888) 811-0107or call the appointment call center (888) 716-7787 or (813) 903- 3600.

Changing Your Appointment

If you cannot keep an existing appointment, 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.
