Located on East-West Road next to Kennedy Theatre, UHSM offers general medical services on a walk-in basis and specialty services by appointment. A pharmacy is available for prescription and non-prescription medications. The Health Promotion Resurce Center (at Queen Lili‘uokalani Center for Student Services, Room 313D) offers information, brief counseling, and peer education/service learning opportunities. Our UHSM website provides detailed information on services, hours, and contact information.
You are not required to have insurance to use the clinic, although all students are strongly advised to obtain health insurance coverage. The clinic accepts most non-HMO plans; the student is responsible for co-payments or charges not covered by insurance. Please bring your medical insurance information with you when you come to visit.
Please note the following:
- Students who are under 18 are required to have a signed "parental consent" before services can be provided.
- If you have special health needs, bring a letter from your personal physician explaining the nature of the problem and recommending appropriate treatment. Special treatments such as ongoing allergy injections are not administered unless specific written instructions have been provided by the prescribing physician.
- International students coming from abroad must complete a tuberculosis test in the United States. UHSM provides skin tests and vaccinations.
