Student Health Services supports the basic health needs of the students of UNG and teaches prevention and self-help skills to students.
A health professional will assess, evaluate, and treat students for minor illness and injury as well as general health maintenance. If after evaluating the student a provider feels an additional evaluation or treatment is required, the student will be referred to a local physician, hospital, or their private physician.
All prices are subject to change. Please contact the clinic with questions or to confirm pricing.

Specialized Care
When patients require more specialized care after our evaluation, they are referred to an off-campus specialist or to their personal physician based on the student's insurance policy.
Pre-existing conditions are not treated at the clinic. The student's personal physician should monitor a pre-existing condition.
Allergy injections are not available in the clinic. Students who are receiving desensitization injections prescribed by their physicians at home can receive their injections by an off-campus, local physician. The student must establish a patient base with that office. A list of offices is available upon request.
