University Health Services (UHS) is committed to providing high-quality, affordable health care services for members of the Northwestern community. Because UHS serves as a teaching clinic, health care is provided by student interns, closely monitored by licensed doctors of chiropractic, licensed acupuncturists, and professional massage therapists, who are experienced members of the University Health Services teaching faculty.

University Health Services is located primarily in the DeRusha Clinical Education Center where chiropractic and massage therapy services are provided. Patients seeking acupuncture or Oriental medicine services are treated in the Edith Davis Teaching Clinic, which is the student clinic of the Minnesota College of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine.

Due to compliance regulations, University Health Services cannot provide services to:

• Individuals who are enrolled in Medicare or Medical Assistance;
• Students and employees whose health problem is related to a vehicle accident or a work-related injury.

Although University Health Services is a teaching clinic, students and employees can request direct care from one of the members of the UHS chiropractic faculty at no charge. Dependents of students and employees can also request direct care from UHS chiropractic faculty at a charge of $5 per visit. Chiropractic care by Northwestern faculty clinicians at any of the three University public clinics is available to employees, students, and their dependents at fee-for-service rates. Call the University clinic nearest you for current rates: Bloomington Natural Care Center, or The Natural Care Center at Woodwinds.

If a student, employee, or their dependent prefers direct care from a member of the acupuncture and Oriental medicine clinic faculty, the patient will be referred to the Bloomington Natural Care Center or The Natural Care Center at Woodwinds and services will be billed at the fee-for-service rate.
