Primary Care Health Service

Our mission at Primary Care Health Service of Barnard College (PCHS) is dedicated to delivering evidence-based, trauma-informed, accessible, high-quality, and compassionate care that holistically addresses the health and well-being of our students. We are committed to health and reproductive justice, supporting student growth, and fostering autonomy in medical decision-making. Our goal is to empower students to become independent healthcare utilizers and advocates for their health, collaborating with them to co-create strategies that enhance their wellness and address the sensitive and vulnerable aspects of care.

We are committed to providing high-quality, student-centered healthcare. Guided by the standards of the American Association of Ambulatory Health Centers and the American College Health Association, we strive for excellence in every aspect of our services.

 

As the primary healthcare provider for our students, we offer comprehensive medical services, including primary care, preventive medicine, gynecologic care, and nutritional support. We aim to deliver high-quality, innovative healthcare that supports students' academic success, personal growth, and overall well-being.
