NothingÌýavailable online?ÌýTry making a same-day appointment
If you are sick and would like to be seen urgently, it still may be possible to see a health care clinician at the SHC. We try to reserve at least 20 appointment slots for students who are acutely ill and would like a same-day appointment.
To make a same-day appointment, call 202-885-3380Ìýand press 2, then 2 and you will be connected with a patient service representative who will help you schedule the visit. We encourage students to call the SHC as early in the day as possible to ensure that there will be an appointment available for them. If a student cannot be seen for a same-day appointment, the patient service representative will assist them in finding another option with one of our community urgent care partners.
