Appointment Descriptions
Medical Appointments

Primary Care medical appointments are for non-urgent issues, including care for ongoing medical conditions, women’s health issues such as routine gynecological care and contraception, men’s health issues, sexually transmitted infection tests, and for preventive health and wellness visits. We have a team of doctors, nurse practitioners and registered nurses to meet students’ varied health care needs. Visit our Meet the Staff page if you want to learn more about our providers so you can choose someone specific.

Other information:
All students are eligible for Primary Care visits at Tang whether or not you have SHIP.

There is a $15 co-pay associated with this visit.

How do I know if my medical need is urgent or non-urgent?

If you have a condition that requires immediate medical attention, such as…

• An injury that has occurred within the last 7 days
• Sudden, serious and/or worsening illness
• Eye injury or a contact lens wearer with eye problems

...you should seek immediate medical attention by talking to the triage nurse in Urgent Care.

If you are unsure of the severity of your condition, please call the advice nurse at (510) 643-7197 during regular business hours.
