For consistent care, select one UHS provider as your PCP to establish a relationship with and best serve your health care needs while you are at UC. You may change this at anytime.

If you have your own established PCP, please be sure to let us know so we can communicate with your PCP regarding your health needs.

We provide care for acute issues including, but not limited to:

• Skin rashes
• Stomach pain
• Open wounds, cuts, or skin infections
• Musculoskeletal injuries (ex. ankle sprains, head injury, back pain, fall injuries, motor vehicle accidents, etc)

For emergencies, call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room.

UHS providers can continue your care for long-term or chronic medical conditions through lifestyle measures and medications.

Common visit types include, but are not limited to:

• Mental health (ex. Anxiety, depression)

We treat students with acute illness/infectious symptoms (ie., fevers, chills, body aches, malaise, cough, shortness of breath, sore throat, ear pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, etc.).

We can review your immunization records and administer vaccinations required by UC or public health recommendations. We can perform laboratory tests (titers) to check your immunity status against various diseases if you do not have complete records. You must bring a copy of your most up-to-date immunization records to your visit.

We offer both routine adult vaccines as well as select travel vaccines at our clinic.

Please see more information on immunizations.

• Gynecological visit – comprehensive gynecological history and physical examination focusing on preventive cervical cancer screening (PAP tests), cervical cancer prevention (HPV vaccination), and STD screening.
• HIV and STI testing - Students can get HIV and STI testing (ie., chlamydia, gonorrhea, hepatitis B, herpes, syphilis) by making an appointment with a UHS provider. For added privacy, these visits can be self-pay (out-of-pocket) so they are not processed through insurance. Test results are placed into the patient’s confidential medical record at UHS and viewable by the patient through the online UC Health (MyChart) portal.
