PFC Floyd K. Lindstrom Department of Veterans Affairs Clinic

The PFC Floyd K. Lindstrom VA Clinic in Colorado Springs, Colorado helps military members and veterans with a variety of medical care. They have mental health and addiction treatment programs along with primary care, dental services, physical therapy and more.

They accept private insurance plans for non service connected care and you can use VA coverage for service connected treatment needs.

This VA clinic has specific addiction treatment programs, which include group and individual counseling along with medication assisted treatment (when appropriate) and other support. If you need more intensive care, they can refer you to residential treatment options.

The VA is also able to treat co occurring mental health and substance use disorders, which requires integrated care that addresses both needs at once. Mental health and addiction often interact to make each other worse, so by addressing them together you can heal more effectively and maintain long term recovery.

I noticed that there are a variety of other interesting service areas at the PFC Floyd K. Lindstrom VA Clinic. They can help with LGBTQ+ care, which helps address mental health needs, questioning of identity and more. They provide this care in a safe and affirming environment.

There’s also a MOVE! Program that can help address weight management issues, especially for veterans with diabetes, high blood pressure and other health concerns. They provide weight loss support groups, tips on healthy eating, classes on proper nutrition and other support.
