Treatment

Care is provided by our team of fully licensed and board-certified physicians, advanced registered nurse practitioners, certified physician assistants and supporting staff. The medical providers are able to diagnose and treat most common physical health problems and prescribe medications. A physician is also available for consult at any time and on-site one morning per week.

Prescriptions

Many prescriptions written at the health center by the medical providers can be filled on-campus for a minimal co-pay. This service is based on availability of the medications. You may also take prescriptions to any drugstore. Walgreens, located three blocks away on Platt Street, offers a pharmacy within walking distance. Capsule pharmacy is a free prescription delivery service. Go to capsule.com to get started. There is also a CVS on Swann Avenue in Olde Hyde Park Village and a Wal-Mart Marketplace on Kennedy Boulevard.

The Health and Wellness Center cannot fill prescriptions written by off-campus providers.

Allergy Injections

The Dickey Health and Wellness Center does not provide allergy injections. The medical providers at the center will provide students with a referral.
