Health Services
Health Services, available to all Wilfrid Laurier students, is
located on the top floor of the
Student Services Centre. 

    The University nurses are available without
appointment 8:30 a.m. to 4:00
p.m. Monday to Friday. Physicians are available by appointment
every morning and afternoon,
Monday to Friday.

    After hours medical care is available at After Hours
MD Clinics (741-5540
for locations and information), Westmount Walk-In Urgent Care
Clinic (751-2273) or by calling
Dr. J. Hicks at 578-8050.

    For more serious problems, students may use the
emergency department at
K-W Hospital or St. Mary's Hospital.

    If students wish to use a physician or dentist who
is off campus, Health
Services has a list of physicians and dentists taking patients.

    Every student must have medical insurance to
register at WLU. Ontario
residents must have an Ontario Health Card. If the student is
from another province, that
province's health insurance is accepted as equivalent.

    Visa students must apply for an Ontario Health
Card within 30
days after arrival in Ontario. At the present time, there is no
charge for an Ontario Health Card
for visa students.
