Welcome Back College Students

Having taught a course at JMU, I know that there are times when students get ill and the school health center is not able to provide the necessary treatment. Naturally, students feel most comfortable with their health care provider from home. Going home is not very practical for many students and lets face it, your loved ones don't want you driving long distances if you do not feel well. The Harrisonburg Community Health Center is here for you. We provide services to persons of all ages. If you are more comfortable with a male provider you will want to schedule an appointment with Dr. Jonathan Moss, a family pracitioner. If you are more comfortable with a female provider, we have several, Dr. Hillary Whonder-Genus a pediatrician who can see patients up to the age of 21 or Dr. Beth Evans who is certified in both internal medicine and pediatrics. We also have a pediatric nurse practitioner, Lynette Crull and a family nurse practitioner, Denise Gochenour. We are not a walk-in clinic but we do our best to see people the same day. If you are under a parent's insurance plan we will bill that insurance for you. If that insurance considers us out-of-network and will not pay for any portion of your visit, we can make cost-effective arrangements with you. You can call us at 433-4913 or you can post questions on our blog. We hope you have a successful and SAFE year.
