Gardner-Webb Health Clinic

The mission of the clinic is to provide comprehensive high quality healthcare for all of our students, but particularly our on-campus residential students who may not have an established provider in the area. Gardner-Webb is committed to the overall wellness of students. 

Gardner-Webb University partners with Atrium Health to provide student health services for all students (including graduate, online undergraduate degree completion program, and part-time TUG students). All residential students as well as our full-time traditional undergraduate commuter students are assessed the Student Health Clinic fee of $125 per semester (charged to their account) and may utilize the Gardner-Webb Health Clinic.  Graduate and online undergraduate degree completion students may contact Becky Toney to opt-in and have the ability to utilize the Gardner-Webb Health Clinic by paying the Gardner-Webb Health Clinic Fee.  Additionally, no claims will be submitted to a student’s health insurance provider for the level of care provided through the Gardner-Webb Health Clinic.  All costs, with the exception of certain laboratory costs, are covered by the Gardner-Webb Health Clinic Fee.
