To reach the center by phone please call (585) 385-8280.

First-time counseling appointments can also be scheduled online through the patient portal.

Does the Health and Wellness Center charge fees for services?

No.

However, the Health and Wellness Center may refer you to outside specialists or hospitals for treatment or services beyond what we provide. You or your parents/guardians are responsible for all costs incurred outside the Health and Wellness Center. Your insurance plan may cover all, part, or none of these costs. In addition, lab services are outside of the Health and Wellness Center. Fees for lab tests are billed by the laboratory company and could result in a charge which may or may not be covered by your insurance.

Does the Health and Wellness Center have a pharmacy?

The Health and Wellness Center stocks limited quantities of common antibiotics for dispensing by practitioners on an as-needed basis. In addition, our providers may write a prescription to Wegmans Pharmacy which will deliver the medication to the Health and Wellness Center for you to pick up. You can sign up for prescription delivery in the Patient Portal.
