Do you need support for your
mental or physical health?
I need to see a doctor.
You can make an appointment to
see a doctor or nurse through the
UCT Student Wellness Service.
Medication is available at cost
price. Student Wellness also offers
support for chronic conditions like
asthma, diabetes and tuberculosis,
and they can help with minor
surgical procedures.
There is also a clinic on upper
campus on Level 6 of the Steve Biko
Students’ Union building where you
can see a nurse on a walk-in basis
for minor ailments (08:30 to 16:30).
I need mental health
support.
Student Wellness can help with
anxiety, depression or other forms
of emotional distress. They are
also able to support students with
relationship and sexuality issues.
They’ll make referrals if you need
more specialised care or support.
I’m looking for sexual
health support.
HIV testing and counselling,
medication for sexually transmitted
infections and basic contraceptives
are provided free of charge.
