Student Health Service (SHS) Handouts

The Student Health Service has reviewed all patient information and brochures that are distributed at the health center and posted on our website to make sure that the information is current. There is a regular and ongoing review process to ensure that all reference materials for our patients are up to date.

 

These patient handouts have been compiled for educational purposes only. They are not meant to provide any diagnosis or may not apply to everyone. If you are a San Francisco State University (SFSU) student, you are eligible to schedule a free medical appointment with a SHS provider. Check the Clinic Services section for more information on the services offered at the SHS.
