General Medical Care
Western University’s Health & Wellness offers an appointment-based medical clinic for all registered part-time and full-time students at Western and affiliated colleges. Urgent problems, such as infections or injuries, can often be seen on the same day. Appointments can also be booked for non-urgent medical issues. Patients may see a physician of a specific gender and may also ask to see the same doctor for each visit.
For a full list of physical health services provided by Western, visit the Student Health Care webpage.
COVID-19
While COVID-19 is no longer considered a public health emergency, health officials across the country agree that upper respiratory illnesses will be with us for the foreseeable future. Let’s work together by:
- Staying up to date with relevant vaccinations
- Staying home when feeling sick, washing hands often, and covering mouths to cough or sneeze
- Respecting individuals who choose to wear masks
- Wearing masks for a period of up to 10 days following an illness when in crowded indoor spaces like large classrooms
Sexual Violence
Preventing and responding to gender-based and sexual violence is a top priority for the University.
For sexual violence health care, contact St. Joseph’s Health Care – Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence Centre.
