We know that visiting a health care provider can be stressful for anyone, but for some of us, that feeling can be magnified because of fear of discrimination or being misunderstood.

UHS works to provide affirming health and wellness services, so you can be treated well and stay well. We continue to educate our staff, plus improve systems and communications, to better welcome and serve all students and other visitors, no matter their needs and concerns.
