Getting Health Care

Same Day Appointments

Same Day Appointments are designed to accommodate students who need medical attention and are on-campus just for the day.  If you have multiple or long-term medical problems or concerns, you are encouraged to schedule an advance appointment.

Advance Appointments

If a medical problem can wait 1-2 working days, and you want first choice of appointment times, students are encouraged to make an advance appointment. This generally remedies the waiting time to see the clinician. It is important to arrive 15 minutes before your appointment time. Appointments must be cancelled 24 hours in advance or a fee will be charged.

To schedule an appointment, please call (408) 924-6122.

Medical records are confidential by law and are not released to anyone, including parents, spouse, friends, other health professionals, and/or university personnel, without the written consent of the patient.

To recieve a copy of your own medical records, you will also need to provide written consent.  There is a fee of 25 cents per page for this service.  However, release of medical records directly to other health professionals are at no cost.
