Be proactive with your health care

Once you are registered, you can make appointments at the Health & Wellness health and mental health clinics. Visit the Health & Wellness website for info on registering as a new patient. 

Check that your provincial health card is up-to-date and that you’ve had all the immunizations you need. Next, create a file with your vaccination history, prescriptions and any health-related information and bring it with you to your first appointment.  

Remember to check with your student union to find out more about supplementary health insurance that can help cover a lot of medical expenses!
