UCSC students needing urgent medical care during this time are advised to seek attention at the Palo Alto Medical Foundation, Westside Urgent Care located at 1301 Mission Street. You may contact the clinic by calling 831-458-6310.  You may also obtain an After Hours Care Handout at our main entrances or online at our Website: healthcenter.ucsc.edu

For UCSC students who are away from campus, or after hours and weekends when the UCSC Student Health Center is closed, Live Health Online is another option to consider. UCSC Students can have an online appointment on a computer or mobile device with a covered Anthem Blue Cross doctor, counselor or psychiatrist for the same low copay you would pay for any in-network outside provider.
