Valet parking is not available. Parking is available in the main parking lot and veterans will enter through the East Entrance.

This will be the final walk-in clinic for the foreseeable future. The Milwaukee VA and its clinics in Union Grove, Cleveland, Appleton and Green Bay will continue calling and scheduling veterans for vaccination appointments.

Those who already have a vaccination appointment time at the medical center or clinics should keep their scheduled time and not come to the walk-in event.
