Biloxi Beach & Seabee Logistics Medical Supply Hub – Switzer Drive Readiness
Our LAC Health counter inside Walmart #1088 at 2681 CT Switzer Sr Drive supports Naval Construction Battalion Center (NCBC) Gulfport, Keesler AFB, U.S. Coast Guard Sector Mobile detachments, Gulf Coast tourism corridors, and Harrison County schools along Pass Road. We keep Memorial Gulfport, Merit Health Biloxi, Biloxi VA clinics, NCBC medical, Gulfport Fire/EMS, Biloxi Public Schools, and cruise/event partners stocked within minutes of US‑90 and the Seabee base gates.
Within 15 miles are NCBC Gulfport Seabee Clinic, Memorial Hospital Gulfport Level II trauma, Merit Health Biloxi, Biloxi VA outpatient clinics, Coast Guard Station Gulfport, Seaway Industrial Park, Gulfport Harbor, MS Coast Coliseum, and Gulfport-Biloxi International Airport. Hurricanes, cruise ship turnarounds, port surges, and DoD training rotations require a “medical suppliers near me” hub integrated with coastal defense and hospitality—this Switzer Drive location delivers.
From WWII shipyards to modern shipbuilding, the Gulf Coast depends on seawalls and Seabees. LAC Health matches that resilience with hurricane-hardened refrigeration, multilingual (English/Spanish/Vietnamese) documentation, and ICS workflows aligned with Harrison County EMA, NCBC Gulfport Incident Command, and Port of Gulfport security.
