You might be away from home, and from mom pestering you to get that annual flu shot, but UTC has your back when you\u2019re not feeling well. <\/span><\/p>\n

Student Health Services (SHS) has partnered with Physical Therapy (PT) and Health and Human Performance (HHP) to offer new health options. PT assessments and care are now available by appointment on Tuesdays 8 a.m. – 12 p.m. and Thursdays 1 – 5 p.m. In partnership with HHP, SHS will now offer nutrition counseling by appointment on Mondays 2 – 5 p.m.<\/span><\/p>\n

SHS \u00a0is open Monday-Friday 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. in room 205 of Maclellan Gym (the entrance is directly across from the UC). Scheduling an appointment is strongly encouraged, though SHS will take walk-ins based on availability. <\/span><\/p>\n

Services include visits for physical exams, screenings, immunizations, lab services, acute and chronic illnesses, Well-Woman exams, TB skin testing, and allergy shots. <\/span>Peruse the SHS website<\/span><\/a> for a more thorough list of services. <\/span><\/p>\n

SHS is staffed by nurse practitioners and provides primary health services to students, faculty and staff. \u00a0Students will not be charged for office visits, and will incur minimal charges for services such as laboratory tests and immunizations.<\/span><\/p>\n
