Clinical Services

The Student Health Center is designed to complement the care you receive from your primary care provider at home. We manage most acute, short-term medical problems, as well as some preventative care. All currently registered students, both undergraduate and graduate, are welcome to access the Student Health Center. Our office is open Monday-Friday from 8:30am-5:00pm during the fall and spring semesters. During school breaks and over the summer our administrative office is open, but our clinic is closed. Our office is closed during all university observed holidays. Please note that the clinical services are intended for students and are not available to Loyola University faculty, staff, administrators, or alumni.

Appointments are strongly recommended, but walk-in are accepted if appointment time slots are available.

Scheduling & Keeping Appointments

Appointments can be made by calling our office at 410-617-5055. Walk-ins are offered the next available time slot, which can vary during the time of year. Our appointment times fill quickly so it is best to call as early in the day as possible to ensure same-day visits. For more information, please see our Appointments page.

Cost

There is no per-visit charge for undergraduate students.* Please note, there could be charges if rapid in-house testing/procedures (i.e., strep test, suture removal, etc.) are done or if pharmacy items are dispensed. SHS does not bill student insurance for services, and payment is due at the time of the appointment. For more information, please see our Clinical Fees page.

*There is a $25/visit fee for graduate students
