When you call for an appointment, please be specific about your needs so that we can schedule you with the most appropriate healthcare provider. If you are a transgender student and you think your needs would be better met in the UHS General Medicine Clinic, just tell our appointment staff the reason(s) you are seeking care and that you prefer an appointment in the General Medicine Clinic. They will schedule you accordingly.

Due to high demand, please schedule routine annual exams at least two weeks in advance.
