VETERAN SERVICES
VA clinics provide free testing for asbestos exposure

A military veteran has the right to asbestos-testing services upon their return home. Contact information for sites that provide such services are available on this Web site, or consult your local directory for a Veterans Administration clinic.

Lung cancer and other asbestos-related diseases tend to take an extended amount of time to incubate, often 15 to 30 years or more after initial contact. Due to the stealth nature of these diseases, one should have a physician screen you regularly. Moreover, because asbestos-related diseases are progressive, when a respiratory problem arises and you may have been exposed to asbestos, you may want to immediately get the medical help you need.

Exposure to asbestos can significantly affect your health. Weitz & Luxenberg understands this and is here to help. For a free consultation, fill out the form below.
