Stetson Health Service
Stetson Health Service's (SHS) mission is to promote optimal health and wellness, and disease prevention and provide quality health care that is appropriate, affordable, accessible and relevant. We strive to empower students to be self-directed and well-informed and to continually improve the standards of health care.
SHS is your doctor's office on campus for non-emergency health care needs. Our clinic is run in partnership with AdventHealth and provides primary care to students and employees including their dependents. Patients are seen by appointment and services are charged through health insurance with self-pay discounted rates available for the uninsured.
