The Walter Reed Health Care System provides comprehensive health care for more than 150,000 Soldiers, other service members, family members and retirees in the National Capital Area. The Main Section of Walter Reed Army Medical Center is located in an attractive Washington D.C. residential area. All patient care activities, as well as most WRAMC administrative services, are located on the Main Post. The WRAMC annex, Forest Glen, is located three miles north of the Center's Main Section, in nearby Montgomery County, MD.

Walter Reed is realigning with the National Naval Medical Center and will then be closing.
