Appointments

To schedule a routine or non-urgent appointment, please call the clinic directly during regular business hours.  We make every effort to accommodate those who wish to be seen on any given day for a medical or mental health concern, and [reserve/strive to have] appointment times available each day to accommodate urgent medical concerns.  You may also wish to speak with the triage nurse practitioner prior to making an appointment to determine appropriate care and treatment.  Cancellations must be made at least 24 hours in advance of a scheduled appointment, or the student will incur a charge.  If you need to renew a prescription you are advised to call the Primary Care team at least 48 hours in advance to allow time to process the request.
