60th Medical Group (Travis AFB)
The 60th Medical Group operates the David Grant USAF Medical Center (DGMC) at Travis Air Force Base, the U.S. Air Force's largest inpatient medical facility. The unit's origins trace back to the activation of the 4167th USAF Hospital on February 15, 1954, at Travis AFB. It was later redesignated as the David Grant USAF Medical Center in 1969 and ultimately became the 60th Medical Group on July 1, 1993. The current state-of-the-art facility, which opened in 1988, is a four-level medical center designed to withstand major earthquakes and can operate independently for up to a week. The facility has received multiple national awards for its design and construction. The 60th Medical Group serves a large and diverse population, including over 130,000 TRICARE beneficiaries and more than 377,000 Department of Veterans Affairs Northern California Health Care System eligible patients. It serves as a major readiness platform for the Air Force Medical Service, with a significant number of its personnel assigned to mobility positions to support operations worldwide. DGMC is a Joint Commission-accredited teaching hospital with extensive postgraduate training programs in medicine, dentistry, nursing, and healthcare administration, and maintains partnerships with institutions like the University of California, Davis. The medical center provides a comprehensive range of medical, surgical, and dental services, and is a key component of Northern California's military healthcare infrastructure.
