University Health Services, Tang Center

Peter Wang BE

The hour information on the website is not accurate. I have an emergency medicine to pick up at the Tang Center pharmacy. However, the entire Tang center (including urgent care) is closed all day for Tuesday 8/2 without any notice. When I got to the Tang center, there is only a security staff making sure no one gets in. Later on I called the advise nurse line and they said no doctor is on call today and I can only go to other urgent care or emergency room...

I spoke to one nice person there on the phone to schedule an appointment. Other than that, the service is extremely poor. They diagnose any malady, even if it is pink eye, as mono and are terribly unequipped to help students with mental health issues. I never even had an opportunity to speak with someone to set up a (virtual) session which was annoying for me because I wanted to talk some stuff out with someone, but I also know there are so many others who struggle with greater issues. It's disgraceful how a renowned university can be so oblivious to students needs (access to quality health care, abundant and healthy food options that are edible for various dietary restrictions, safe shelter).

Excellent experience at the optometry office. Emmy, my technician, was wonderful and double checked that my prescription and contact lenses were comfortable. She did a great job explaining how my eyes were working/not working and answered all of my questions. When I told her that my main problem was focusing on seeing far away outside, she walked me to the lobby window and had me try different practice lenses while looking outside to see what would actually work best for me in practice. When I had trouble getting my new lenses in due to falling eyelashes, she taught me a trick to get them out without dropping the lens. 10/10 to Emmy and I could not be more grateful that she was my technician today.

Tang Eye Center is filled with kind, knowledgeable people (from docs to students to front desk staff.) I get seen quickly every time I go there, and the eye exam is thorough and painless. The frames are fairly groovy, and I always leave feeling very glad to have taken good care of my eyesight with them. I'd totally recommend it for eye care and glasses!
