City College of San Francisco Student Health Center

First time going to my school's Health Center for an appointment and boy am I impressed. The front desk was really nice and friendly. And was such a quick process to fill out paperwork and then check in on the computer which I thought was suuuper convenient!

Unlike planned parenthood I waited about 5-10, minutes to get called in by the medical assistant. Man I am never going back to planned parenthood for even a quick appointment because it is definitely NOT worth waiting 2-3 hours just to be seen for 10 minutes. No fees if you are a student at city! That's what the health fees are for (which I didn't know lol).

Brenda, the nurse practitioner is awesome. She's nice and very friendly and answers all my questions. And I'm glad I went here.

City College's Student Health Center is a godsend for students.  Their fee's are very low cost or even free.

Definitely come here for annual check up's if you don't have health insurance anywhere else. Services here are a great substitute for going to your normal HMO.  All of the nurses are very nice, understanding, and great to talk to.

I come here for general gynecological visits.  I've received a pap smear exam here from Brenda.  And I have to say that she's the greatest nurse I've had here at the Health Center.  Brenda is always very patient with me during the whole exam, which is very uncomfortable for me.  But she never seems frustrated or impatient by my nervousness.

I've been a student at City for a few years now and not once have I had to pay for my birth control pills.  As long as you are a student, all services are available to you.  Just sign up for the California Health Access Pass.

The new building is beautiful...and has a great feel to it.  Definitely a cleaner environment, and very modern looking.

For anything go see Brenda!  She's very welcoming and very easy to talk to.
