WELCOME TO STUDENT HEALTH SERVICES!

For medical emergencies please dial 9-911 (on campus) and 911 (off campus).

The mission of the Texas Woman's University Student Health Services (SHS) is to deliver quality health care and services that meet the physical, psychological, cognitive and interpersonal needs of our students.  Our daily operations and planning guidelines are closely aligned with the American College Health Guidelines and Standards to protect the student's individual autonomy.  The SHS staff believes that health and wellness information compliments the academic success of students.

Student Health Services is located across the street for the ACT building and next door to the police department in Hubbard Hall.  We are pleased to offer a variety of medical services to our students.  General Family Practice services, Immunizations, and Women's Health services are just some of what we have to offer.
