When you’re not feeling your best, you can’t do your best – in or outside the classroom. We're here to help you feel better.
We have fully licensed primary care providers, nurses, medical assistants, and support staff. CHS also offers a full-service pharmacy and vision clinic, and we contract with lab and X-ray services to provide a robust care experience that can meet your concerns and needs – all right on campus.
If you feel sick, have an injury, need help with an ongoing issue, or just want to talk with someone about your health, we’re here to help!
