Health Center
Scheduling Appointments
To provide extra care and precaution to the patient and the provider, please call the Health Center to schedule an appointment at 757.352.4953.
A nurse practitioner is available to all on-campus students, including those residing in campus housing and commuters (both undergraduate and graduate) who require minor healthcare services on campus. The nurse practitioner can provide a higher level of care than a nurse and has the authority to write prescriptions. A portion of the University Services Fees for on-campus students grants students the ability to visit the Health Center as often as necessary. Students can access physician partners nearby on Providence Road at Sentara Family Medicine Physicians if additional care is needed. Please note: allergy shots cannot be administered on campus.
Visit The Health Center, virtually or in-person, if you have any of the following symptoms:
- Cold & Flu
- Fever
- Ear Infection
- Sinus Infection
- Cough
