US Army Medical Department Museum

If you get a chance to go, please do. The museum features great military exibits and wonderful displays. Free to see. There's a few exibits that are still under development so please be respectful. It takes time to make a display that truly honors the folks in that historical event. Wheelchair friendly and mostly AC. Few areas are outside.

Have brought a family member here the last 2 years, December time frame, drove in from Seguin. checked website and other online sources that say it is open, and it is still closed. Last year it was for renovation. Someone should be managing the online information.

The museum is gigantic, you can easily spend a whole morning in there. Inside and outside things to see! Very well organized and well kept! The people who work there 90 are veterans! They'll know a lot about the place and have stories to share!

Great history of AMEDD. An impressive collection of military medicine equipment and vehicles. I was the only person in the museum at the time of my visit. New exhibits currently being curated.

A great military museum! There is a lot of history displayed here, from the 1800’s to today. I have a lot of respect for the military members in the medical field. This museum is dedicated to them and the tools they use.

I had an absolutely awesome visit to Fort Sam Houston‘s, AMEDD museum. Ranging from the Indian wars to the more recent Middle eastern conflicts. This museum has everything about AMEDD‘s Nurse, Dental, Civilian, Veteranarian and Medical Service corps. The museum has a very wide array of tools, equipment, ambulances, medals, uniforms, if you can think of it, they probably have it. The curators are very kind and it’s worthwhile to have a chat with any of them! Many thanks to the workers of this museum for making it such a great experience!

What an amazing piece of history not only for our military medical troops but for our country. From the 1st steps in seeing the wall of those troops who were rewarded the medal of honor through the last steps of the museum bringing us into modern history, it is impossible to not be Over com with a sense of pride and honor for our country and the servicemen and women who have served us so selflessly. If you haven't had the opportunity to tour this museum I challenge you to take a couple of hours and tour this piece of history.

No cover charge. Kids were entertained. Train was the kids favorite. Would like to go back and take a better look at the displays.

This truly is a fantastic place to see how far the United States Army and Army medicine has come since the days of the revolutionary war.

Great museum! You do need to go through the Fort Sam Houston Visitor Center off I35 to get a pass if you are not a service member or retiree. This museum is well laid out with great displays both indoor and outdoor. I had no idea how much civilian medical care has been positively impacted by Army medicine over the years. Must see if you are in San Antonio.

NOT OPEN TO THE PUBLIC!! If you are like me and making a long trip to visit this museum, it is important to know that it's not open to the public. My son wanted to see this museum. It was first on our list ahead of the Alamo and River Walk. I'm very disappointed he wasn't able to experience the museum.
