Tufts Health Service is a medical practice serving the acute and chronic medical needs of undergraduate and graduate students. Our staff has many combined years of working with college students. Students come to the Health Service for a wide range of medical needs, including general sick visits, women’s health, travel medicine, allergy injections, and orthopedic care. We pride ourselves on a model that focuses not only on treatment, but also on health promotion and prevention through education and awareness. Student input and feedback is core to our mission.
