Health center

Concordia's health center services are available to all students, full and part-time, at no cost.

The health center is dedicated to providing basic, high quality, holistic health care that is easily accessible and responsive to your health needs. We also strive to encourage your continued growth in health care consumerism.

At the health center we are here to help you recover from illness, but we also want to go beyond that by helping students learn how to prevent health-related problems and to achieve optimal wellness.

Everything you strive to do is easier if you are feeling well.

The health center is conveniently located on the lower level of the Campus Center. Fall and spring semester hours are:

Monday: 8:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.
Tuesday: 8:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.

The health center is closed during the summer, during which time Concordia students have access to the Seward Family Medical Center, 250 N. Columbia Ave., 643-4800 and Memorial Health Care Systems. Health information is also available at your fingertips via several health hotlines.
