This is a nurse-led service, which means you will be seen initially by a nurse who will be able to provide you with treatment or refer you to a GP or other service.
We offer a full NHS General Practice service for all Roehampton University students within the practice area. In addition, we provide:
- sexual health screening
- a family planning service
- travel immunisations and advice.
All consultations are completely confidential.

Registering with the Medical Centre
It is important that you register with us as soon as you arrive at the University, or when you have accepted your University place. If you are not registered, we will still see you, but it is easier and safer to register before you need to see us.

The Walk-in Clinic, held on Monday to Friday at 11am–12pm, is for:
- emergencies
- people who are unwell and need to be seen immediately
- emergency contraception.
If you have a minor ailment, see the Medicine Cabinet.
Overseas students
If you are not normally resident in the UK or have not been in the UK for at least six months, you will not be entitled to free NHS treatment. Please see the Department of Health website for details.
