Memorial Day is a time of remembrance, but it is also an opportunity to support the living veterans who continue to serve our communities every day.
Veterans often face unique health challenges, including chronic medical conditions, service-related injuries, post-traumatic stress, and barriers to accessing benefits. While BASS Medical Group does not provide specialized veteran or mental health services, we are proud to share trusted local and regional resources available to veterans and their families in Walnut Creek and throughout Contra Costa County.
