Our Mission:

The Office of Health & Wellness Services provides high-quality, holistic, easily accessible and cost-effective care to Suffolk students.  We aim to empower students to make healthy lifestyle choices through education, consultation, assessment and treatment. We maintain an on-going collaboration with university faculty, administration, staff, students, and the medical community. Our staff is committed to the diversity and understanding of each student within, but not limited to the contexts of circumstance, family, community, and culture.  We encourage and educate students to become advocates for their own healthcare which is essential to the overall academic success of university students.
