About Student Health Center - New York University
The NYU Student Health Center provides a range of services including medical care, counseling, health promotion, and pharmacy services. The center is accessible to all matriculated NYU students in degree-granting programs, regardless of their insurance status. Students have reported positive experiences with the staff, describing them as caring, empathetic, and helpful. The health center has been praised for its efficiency in providing necessary medications and referrals to specialists. One student highlighted the excellent care they received from nurses during allergy shot treatments, while another student expressed satisfaction with the virtual care provided by Dr. Wang, who was helpful in navigating the student health insurance system. While some students have had negative experiences, others have found the Student Health Center to be a valuable resource during their time at NYU.
As a cancer patient, this university's health center has failed me in more ways than I can possibly describe in a Google review. More than that, I am tired. I am tired of calling, tired of emailing, tired of crying over the phone with people who obviously don't care about what I'm going through.

The counseling service sign-up process is so demoralizing that it'll snap you right out of needing counseling. Incredibly inflexible and judgemental for a service regarding mental health.

It cost me out of pocket and she, predictably, found nothing wrong and sent me home with that counseling recommendation.
I've yet to have a positive experience at NYU SHC. Walking through those doors is signing away your fate...read full review
Hi, student from Cohort 2024–2026. I have been experiencing retaliation from the leadership of my department, even though this is not the first time NYU has allowed retaliation in a department, as in the last well-known case of the professor in the Politics Department (case: “NYU’s Social Science Division and Politics Program retaliation department professor Title IX– it is public). I complained to Linda Mills because of the lack of quality in the program, the lack of access to research, and the lack of programs for first-gen students, and now the department is even sending internship offers to students from bankrupt companies (Enron case, 2001).
