Accessibility
Due to limited provider availability and impacts of COVID-19, the clinic is currently booking all appointments internally. The most expedient option to receive care from our team is to utilize the MHS GENESIS Patient Portal at https://patientportal.mhsgenesis.health.mil to place consults, messages or request appointments via “USAF Academy Women’s Health Clinic.”
The access to care line is less efficient, but the office is available at 719-524-2273, option 1. We assign care consultants to patients to navigate your treatment. This clinic does require a referral from the PCM for most gynecology services including general or well woman exams, annual exams with pelvic exams and pap smears, follow-up and treatments such as Depo Provera (new and restarts), as well as Contraception Counseling and treatment, such as IUDs, Nexplanon, and oral.
