Is the Pharmacy Care Clinic the right place for you?

Consultations about over-the-counter medications are free for everyone (students, faculty, staff members and the community at large).

All other services may or may not be covered by your health insurance plan. If a service is not covered by your insurance plan, you will be required to pay for the service yourself.

Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) covers all services offered at the pharmacy, except for certain vaccines. Anyone with a Universal Health Insurance Plan (UHIP) or out-of-province insurance plan can seek services for minor ailments at the Student Health and Wellness Centre, which accepts these health insurance plans, or pay the fee ($19) at the Pharmacy Care Clinic.
