Call 806-651-3287  or schedule an appointment online.   Appointments are required and we make every effort to work around class and work schedules. Students must be currently enrolled and present their Buffalo Gold Card to enter the building. 

The clinic will consider a no-show appointment at any time a patient has not given advanced notice within 1 hour of the appointment.   All no-show appointments are charged a $20 non-cancellation fee per occurrence, $40 per occurrence charge for students that have over 3 no shows and $40.00 for specialist appointments per occurrence. 

The $70.00 Student Health Fee, paid upon enrollment, covers the cost of most office visits, however, there may be charges for diagnostic tests, injections and some procedures.  This fee also covers Counseling Services - up to ten sessions per fiscal year at no additional cost.   Patients are encouraged to pay any additional medical fees at the time of service.  Patients who do not pay within 14 days will incur a $2 processing fee and a hold on academic records.    Medical Services accepts cash, check, the Buffalo Gold Card and credit cards (credit cards in person).   All payments with major credit cards (Visa, Master Card, American Express or Discover) must be made in person in the Student Medical Services office to be processed.  The student health fee does not cover referrals or emergency care at any other facility.  Any unpaid balance not paid within a 90-day period or by the close of the semester is subject to collection fees assessed by an outside agency.

The medical staff will write an excuse note for class or work if the student was ill or injured and only if our providers were involved in the medical care of the student. Please note: Our medical providers cannot write excuse notes for illnesses or problems for which we never provided care. A diagnosis is not disclosed unless requested and approved by the patient.
