The university provides quality health services to its students, most notably our health clinics on each of the Fredericton and Saint John campuses.

If a specialist is currently following you, the specialist can make a direct referral to a specialist in Fredericton to ensure your care plan. If you wish to be followed by one of our practitioners, you should bring any relevant medical history, test results, specialist reports, etc and provide them to one of our nursing staff upon arrival at UNB. For continuity of care we prefer the same practitioner follows you throughout your stay in university.
