Get Care

Thielen Student Health Center has physicians and advanced registered nurse practitioners (ARNP) available by appointment to see you for your illness or injury concerns.

We treat a variety of primary health care concerns such as upper respiratory infections, strep throat, influenza, rashes, infections and more.

Routine physical exams that you would normally receive annually can also be done by a healthcare provider at Student Health. Physical exams are different from routine office visits and could more appropriately be called “preventive and anticipatory exams.” These exams proactively focus on health issues based on specific criteria such as age, previous health history, social habits, lifestyle, and other factors.

Separate from preventive exams are medical clearance evaluations. These would include exams needed to satisfy requirements for starting a new job, participation in a camp or sporting event, foreign travel or similar. If you have a physical form that needs to be completed with the exam, we are happy to help you with that.

From the required vaccinations for all new students to tetanus shots to annual flu vaccinations, Student Health can provide any and all recommended adult immunizations you’ll need while on campus.

Many students choose to travel while in school. Our Travel Clinic can help make sure you’re vaccinated appropriately for your trips. Maybe you’re looking for the human papillomavirus vaccination? Our women’s health service will serve you well.

Whatever your immunization needs and requirements- just let us know, and we’ll make sure you have what you need.
