Our Services
Emory University Student Health Services (EUSHS) is located at 1525 Clifton Road and provides a wide variety of outpatient clinical and health education services designed to meet the needs of Emory students. Registered students with valid Emory ID cards are eligible for care. Student's spouses, Domestic Partners and unmarried children over 18 years of age are only eligible for primary medical care if they are currently enrolled in the Emory/Aetna Student Health Insurance Plan. Please note that the enrolled Emory student must have purchased dependent coverage separately; it is not automatically provided by virtue of the student’s enrollment in the plan. Care for eligible dependents is provided by appointment on a fee-for-service basis.
Please note that Emory University employees attending courses under the tuition courtesy program are NOT eligible for care at EUSHS and should seek care with other primary care providers in the Emory Healthcare system or the local community.
EUSHS services include primary outpatient health care; physical examinations; confidential HIV testing; women’s health and contraception services; colposcopy and IUD placements; mental health counseling and referral; preventive health; substance abuse counseling and referrals; allergy injections and immunizations; on-site specialty clinic in dermatology and referrals to off-site specialists; health education and wellness programming and individual consultation; international travel clinic and immunizations; nutrition counseling; and laboratory testing.
