59th Medical Wing
The 59th Medical Wing (MDW) is the U.S. Air Force’s largest medical wing and is the Air Force functional medical command for Joint Base San Antonio (JBSA). It comprises six medical groups across San Antonio. Three are located at the Wilford Hall Ambulatory Surgical Center (WHASC); the 959th Medical Group is located at San Antonio Military Medical Center (SAMMC), JBSA-Fort Sam Houston; and the 359th and 559th Medical Groups are located at and support the missions of JBSA-Randolph and JBSA-Lackland, respectively.〔59th Medical Wing Public Affairs, 2014〕
The 59th MDW operates with a $270 million budget, and a staff of more than 6,000 military, civilian, and contract personnel. The 59th MDW is home to the Critical Care Air Transport Team Pilot Unit (CCATT), which has executive management over 118 active-duty, Guard and Reserve teams. The wing also has the Defense Department’s largest Blood Donor Center, a Warfighter Refractive Surgery Center, and Extracorporeal Life Support (ECLS) capability. The ECLS offers the only global transport option in the world, providing partial heart-lung bypass to eligible adults, infants, and children suffering from severe cardiopulmonary failure. The medical wing also has the largest dental facility in the DOD and the only dental group in the Air Force. The 59th Dental Group examines approximately 36,000 basic military trainees and 28,000 technical training students a year. It has the only stereolithography and modeling lab in the Air Force, which produces dimensionally accurate medical models and craniofacial prostetheses. This capability provides rehabilitative support to patients with acquired or congenital defects of the head and neck region.〔59th Medical Wing Public Affairs, 2014〕

Wilford Hall Ambulatory Surgical Center is the Air Force’s largest outpatient facility, providing a full range of primary care, specialty care, and outpatient surgery. At SAMMC, the DOD’s largest inpatient medical facility, nearly 2,000 59th MDW personnel work with Army medics in areas such as the bone marrow transplant center, the burn unit, and other rare and complex treatment environments. The wing’s highly specialized trauma surgeons, along with their Army counterparts, staff the Defense Department’s only Joint Level 1 Trauma Center in the United States.〔59th Medical Wing Public Affairs, 2014〕
