Outpatient care is provided for pediatric through geriatric patients. Shaw clinic's range of services include pediatrics, family health, flight medicine, limited gynecological services, oral surgery, general dentistry, periodontics, prosthodontics, physical therapy, optometry, mental health, family advocacy, laboratory, pharmacy, public health, radiology, health & wellness, and immunizations.
All care not performed at Shaw AFB is arranged through referrals to a robust network of military hospitals and TRICARE civilian medical resources in the surrounding communities. We are fortunate to be surrounded with extremely high caliber medical services and most specialties within a reasonable distance of the base.

Pharmacy
The Pharmacy dispenses medications upon receipt of a written prescription from a military or civilian provider. The Pharmacy must follow South Carolina State law with regard to pharmacy practice. If you receive your care from a civilian provider, please come by the Pharmacy and pick up a list of medications stocked at the 20th Medical Group Pharmacy.
Shaw AFB Pharmacies will not be able to fill a prescription for a medication not on our formulary. New prescriptions from 20 MDG providers and from civilian providers are filled at the main pharmacy. All patients must pull a ticket from the ticket station located in the pharmacy lobby for their prescription to be processed. Your ticket number will be called to the first free pharmacy window in the order it was pulled from the machine. Prescription refills are called into and filled at the Satellite/BX Pharmacy only (located in the Base Exchange complex).
Pharmacy hours of operation are:
Main Pharmacy Hours Satellite/BX Pharmacy Hours
Monday-Friday: 0800 - 1700 hrs Monday-Friday: 0900 - 1700 hrs
Shaw Pharmacies are closed on Sat/Sun/Holidays/Wing Down Days and the First Friday of every other month for training (Feb, Apr, June, Aug, Oct, Dec).
The Satellite/BX Pharmacy has a convenient call-in refill service. Refills called in before 1200 are ready the next duty day. Refills called in after 1200 are ready within two duty days. The phone numbers for this system are 895-6678 or toll free at 1-877-796-2273. The Pharmacy cannot refill prescriptions originally filled at a civilian pharmacy.
You must present your Identification Card (ID) to the Pharmacy window when dropping off a prescription or picking up medication. Pharmacy staff members will dispense medications when presented with a valid ID card.
Patients may also elect to have their prescriptions filled at either the TRICARE Mail Order Pharmacy (TMOP) or a local civilian pharmacy that accepts TRICARE. Unless you are active duty, there will be a co-pay for each prescription filled at these locations. There is no co-pay for active duty members. Keep in mind those medications that are non-formulary at Shaw AFB may be formulary medications at these two pharmacies, and may therefore be available at the lower co-pays.
In order to utilize the TMOP, patients need to register with TMOP. Registration forms can be obtained either Shaw Pharmacy. They can also be obtained by contacting the TMOP at the following toll-free number: 866-363-8667.
Additional questions about the TMOP can be answered by your pharmacy staff at Shaw, the toll-free number provided above, or through the following website: www.express-scripts.com.
Non-Controlled Medication Turn-In at Shaw Pharmacy
As a customer courtesy, both the Shaw Main and BX Pharmacies accept non-controlled medication for turn-in/disposal of prescription or over-the-counter medications. Shaw pharmacies do not accept turn in of controlled substances (medication you had to sign for). Please contact Shaw Main Pharmacy at 803-895-6678 if you have any questions.
