Women's Health

Women's health services are provided in a thoughtful, personalized and confidential manner. The quality of care received and the experience provided by the doctors, nurses, and nurse practitioners in Women's Health is reassuring to many patients.

To better serve women with gynecological health needs, appointments are required. To accommodate students with varying schedules, appointments can be made one to two weeks in advance. A full Women's Health exam SHOULD be canceled within 24 hours. A missed appointment fee is assessed to students who miss their appointment.

Most women's health services such as a full exam (includes a breast check, pelvic exam) are provided free of charge. STI testing is provided as a fee for service. A pap smear may or may not be indicated at the time of the full exam.

Thin prep (TP) pap testing is done exclusively. If a pap is done, there will be a $45 charge. Based on TP results, HPV (Human Papilloma Virus) testing will be done for an additional charge of $70. If you are covered under the Student Insurance Plan, these charges will automatically be covered. If you carry other health insurance, you will be responsible for the charges; you may submit the charges to your private insurance carrier for potential reimbursement.
