Medical Services

The following are some of the most common urgent care situations we encounter at the Student Health Center:

Respiratory conditions (bronchitis, asthma, pneumonia, etc.)
Ear, throat or eye infections
Gastrointestinal issues
Urinary tract infections
Dermatologic issues
GYN issues and Men’s health issues
Anxiety/Depression
Musculoskeletal injuries

Allergies
Sexually transmitted infections
Eating disorders and body image concerns

Flu shots

The Student Health Center is able to perform many on-site/same-day lab tests (strep throat, influenza, mono, Covid-19, pregnancy tests, etc.), but is also able to send labs to external laboratory companies (Quest, LabCorp) if necessary. We are able to perform blood draws on site.

Our clinic does not have access to on-site imaging, but our clinicians can order imaging (x-rays, ultrasounds, etc.), if required, from local imaging centers.

Please call us if you have questions about our services: (925) 631-4254 or email healthcenter@vaftizo.com

Appointments can be made by calling our office at (925) 631-4254 (if you receive our voicemail, please leave us a message and we will return your call as soon as possible), scheduling online, or stopping by during business hours (lower level of Augustine Hall).

Fees

A visit fee of $20 will be charged to a student's account after an appointment.* There is no charge for necessary follow-up visits regarding the same medical issue.

Our clinic also has a small, on-site pharmacy for commonly prescribed medications. The charge for these prescriptions is $15*, if needed, though patients may always choose to have a prescription sent to a local pharmacy, if desired.

* We encourage any student to inform us if our visit or prescription fees are financially untenable so that accommodations can be made. Our priority is to get students the care they need.

Insurance is not necessary to be seen at the Student Health Center. We do utilize external lab companies, though, which will require active insurance in order to avoid out-of-pocket costs for these labs, if needed. The clinic is, however, able to provide many common in-house tests (Covid-19, influenza, mono, strep throat, glucose testing, urine testing, pregnancy tests, etc.) which are included in the visit fee.

Insurance may also be utilized if our clinicians send you to an external imaging center for imaging, if necessary.
