Need an appointment with a medical provider as soon as possible? We are excited to let you know that Virtual Urgent Care is now available across the St. Lawrence Region, including to our student population at Clarkson University.
Rochester Regional Health has partnered with the Clarkson University Student Health and Counseling Center to offer virtual health care daily from 7 am to 10 pm for a variety of non-emergency medical needs, including allergies, colds, congestion, mild asthma, rashes, sinus infections, sore throats, and stomach issues.
In addition to the Health Center’s current in-person services (8 am to 4:30 pm M-F), students can now access virtual urgent care through their smartphone, tablet, or computer. During the appointment, a Rochester Regional Health provider will assess and, if needed, prescribe treatment or recommend further tests (i.e., throat swabs for strep, nasal swabs for COVID/flu, blood work, etc.) which can be completed at either the Potsdam or Canton Urgent Care locations.
We invite you to visit rochesterregional.org/urgentcare to learn more. Please note that these services are not free, and we strongly encourage you to check with your insurance provider to confirm that virtual care is included in your existing plan.
For further assistance with accessing care, you can call (585) 922-TELE (8353), available daily from 7 am to 10 pm.
