The Student Health Service provides primary health care to the students of Memorial University and its affiliated institutions.
Primary care, or
family medicine, is a specialty of medicine which emphasizes
first contact care, health maintenance, primary prevention, and
management of common acute and chronic illnesses. It is broad in
scope and includes the initial management of any symptom,
regardless of organ system, sex or age of the patient.
Primary care is personal and comprehensive care, and includes
the overall coordination of the care of the patient's health
problems, be they biological, behaviourial or social. Collaborating
with consultants and community resources is an essential part of
effective primary care.
Family physicians spend 4 years to get doctorate in medicine (MD)
and an additional 2 years of residency training in the specialty of
family medicine.
The family physicians and nurses working at Student Health, by the
nature of their work, have expertise in the diagnosis and
management of health concerns common to university students. These
include: contraception, STDs, women's health, musculoskeletal
injuries, anxiety and depression, acne, etc. We are committed to
keeping uptodate with the latest developments in medicine, using
information technology to ensure best possible patient care.
