What to expect?

Student Supported Clinics are an opportunity for our population to be offered timely access to a range of services delivered by a group of multi-professional students in a safe and supervised environment.

You may be signposted to suitable services by your healthcare provider as an option where they feel that this is right for you and can offer you equivalent care or new services but without a long wait, more regularly and in a range of settings.

Making this a great experience for all
