The majority of students register with the University Health Service. Full details of our services can be seen on this web site. We provide full NHS care to the students, staff of the University and their families who are registered with them. The University Health Service has been a fundholding practice for three years, and through the fundholding scheme has developed services specifically for the student population. We have group or individual therapy workers including art therapy and drama therapy, behavioural therapy and psychoanalytical therapy.
Students also have a full and active sporting life, but can get many injuries.
Dr James has been interested in sporting injuries for over ten years, and since 1995, has been the medical advisor to the English National Ballet when they are in Southampton. We have highly trained physiotherapists working from within the practice. If your problem is urgent and needs to be dealt with on the same, we always have somebody available to help you. Please use this service only when your problem is urgent however, to be fair to your fellow patients. If you wish to contact us urgently when the practice is closed, calling the above numbers will get to an answer phone, giving a number for you to ring.
