COVID-19 News and Updates from the Student Health Center

Welcome back to campus!

In-person and telemedicine services are available at the Student Health Center.

If you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 or proceed to the nearest emergency department. The Student Health Center is not an Urgent Care Center or Emergency Department.

  • Primary Care, including Men’s and Women’s Health

    In-person and telemedicine appointments can be scheduled 24/7 through the Healthy Coog Patient Portal or by calling 713-743-5151 during regular business hours.

    For the safety of our patients and staff, patients must complete a COVID-19 Symptom Assessment prior to scheduling an appointment. For those who exhibit symptoms listed on the assessment form, an initial telemedicine consultation/triage can be scheduled in which the provider determines an in-person visit is medically necessary in order to provide treatment or care.
