Medical Advice
A nurse is available for simple medical questions or advice during the day.
- Call 650-498-2336 and ask for the advice nurse, M–F from 8:30 am to 5 pm, during the regular academic year and 9 am to 5 pm during the summer quarter, spring break and winter break.
- You can access your regular health care provider through the VadenPatient portal for routine questions and advice, medication refills, or the follow-up questions to a visit that are not urgent. These messages are not routinely checked on weekends, evening, holidays or if the clinician is not in the clinic that day.
