Office of Student Health Services

Mission Statement: The Student Health Services exists to provide accessible, affordable, quality healthcare to all University of Massachusetts Lowell students, with a particular focus on wellness and prevention.

Health Services provides diagnosis and treatment of episodic illnesses such as headache, colds, sore throats, mono, nausea, vomiting, rashes, sprains, vaginitis and urinary tract infections, etc. We provide evaluation and treatment of minor injuries as well as gynecologic care, contraceptive management and counseling, diagnosis and treatment of sexually transmitted infections, health and wellness counseling, the administration of immunizations, and laboratory work.

The staff includes nurse practitioners, a registered nurse, a consultant M.D., health educators, an immunization coordinator, a secretary and an insurance coordinator. While walk-in service is provided for emergency first aid, students must have an appointment to see the nurse practitioner for illness or routine health care. Call 978-934-4991 for an appointment.

There is no fee for any care given at Health Services. Students are financially responsible for all diagnostic test fees, prescription fees and all medical services received off-campus.

During the academic year we are open Monday 8:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Summer hours are Monday through Friday 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. See referrals for information about evening, holiday and weekend care. 

NEW to our website is a monthly Student Health 101 e-newsletter.  All students will receive issues via their UMass Lowell e-mail address.  Check out the Latest edition of UML Student Health 101 now!
