Student Health Center

One of the perks of being a Los Angeles Valley College student is access to health services for your physical well-being. Your good health is vital to your success. We treat students with skill, care and compassion, and will always respect your privacy and confidentiality. Here’s what we can do for you.

Prevention and cure

Medical assessments, examinations, and short-term treatment for illness and minor medical problems are available at the Student Health Center. As a student at Los Angeles Valley College, you can access Student Health Center services by presenting:

• A picture ID

• Your current LAVC registration showing that you’ve paid the Health Fee

Please be sure your student health fee payment is up to date and bring both of these when you come for your appointment.

Sick or well, please make an appointment

Medical appointments are highly recommended because of space and time limitations. Please call (818) 947-2918 to make an appointment and we will try to accommodate you as soon as possible. Walk-ins are welcome only if our patient schedule permits.
