Welcome to the UNCG Student Health Services website. We are located in the newly renovated Gove Health Center on Gray Drive.

We provide medical, psychological, and preventative health services to assist you in maintaining a healthy lifestyle. The staff at Student Health Services provides general medical care, sports medicine, women's health, lab/x-ray services, and pharmacy services as part of the Medical Clinic. The Counseling and Testing Center is available to provide support through individual and group counseling as well as psychiatric services. They also provide outreach programs to the campus. The Wellness Center provides a broad range of health information and conducts campus-wide programs designed to help you adopt healthy lifestyles. A registered dietitian, tobacco cessation counseling, massage therapy, and acupuncture are some of the additional services available to students through the Wellness Center.

The Student Health Services staffs are caring and concerned professionals, licensed/certified in their area of expertise. The medical care provided is of highest quality. The Student Health Services is accredited by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC). This accreditation represents our promise to provide high quality services in a caring environment responsive to your needs.

As Director of UNCG Student Health Services, I speak for our entire staff as we welcome you and wish you health, wellness and success in your academic endeavors.
