Medical clinics are offered several days a week and are staffed with medical personnel who volunteer their time and can write prescriptions (i.e., MD or NP) at their discretion.
For all emergencies, call Campus Police, x2555 or 903.813.2555. They will respond and call 911 if indicated. If ambulatory medical services are needed at time other than above when Health Services is open, the following facilities offer care.
All of the hours for these facilities are subject to change so you might call ahead to check. Every attempt is made to keep this posting current.
