General office visits for preventive care, illness and injury are provided at no charge.
Medications, laboratory services, medical supplies and some physical examinations
are provided at reduced cost. Students should call for appointments. Urgent care appointments are available when necessary. Appointments for vaccines
can be made through the Patient Portal https://uafchc.uaf.edu/. Due to Covid-19 all labs and vaccines require an appointment. See Lab and Vaccine hours link. Please see Summer Services for summer lab hours.
