After Hours Care
If you need medical care when our office is closed:
- Schedule an online appointment for the next business day.
-
If your problem is not severe and you just want to make sure you are evaluated soon, you can request a sick visit with a Student Health and Counseling primary care provider. If you check online and cannot find an appointment that suits your needs, please call when the office is open (on-call providers do not set appointments for callers).
- Call with urgent questions that cannot wait.
-
We always have a person on call to address urgent medical questions. For example, if you are not sure whether your symptoms should warrant an immediate visit to a hospital Emergency Room, the on-call provider can help you figure out what to do. Simply call our main phone number 215-746-WELL (9355) to be connected to our provider on call.
- Visit a local Urgent Care.
-
There are several options in Philadelphia (you can search online for them), and their hours vary. Remember that you and your health insurance plan are responsible for any costs related to this care. Following are some examples, but listing them here does not imply endorsement of the services provided there:
- Go to the nearest Emergency Room or call 9-1-1 if it's a true medical emergency.

Patients can be evaluated and possibly admitted into the hospital for more intensive treatment. Remember that you and your health insurance plan are responsible for any costs related to this care.
