Medical Clinic Appointments

University of Arkansas enrolled students and active employees are eligible to schedule medical services at Pat Walker Health Center. Students must provide their current UARK ID when checking in for an appointment.  

Appointments for all medical clinics — Primary Care Clinic, GYN (Women's) Clinic, and Allergy, Immunizations & Travel Clinic — can be scheduled through the online Patient Portal or by calling 479-575-4451.

  • Please plan to arrive at least 15 minutes prior to your schedule appointment time. Patients arriving late will be requested to reschedule.

  • If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, please do so at least one-hour prior by calling 479-575-4451 or online via the Patient Portal. 

  • If you have any type of medicaid insurance, please have your primary care physician send a referral to the Pat Walker Health Center on your behalf prior to your appointment. This will allow the billing process with insurance to run more smoothly. 

  • Chaperones are available to all patients, and signs are posted in all exam rooms to let patients know they can request one at any time during their visit. 

The health center at times offers limited same-day appointments for acute medical concerns. It is strongly encouraged to call ahead before walking in. 

If you are unsure if you need to be seen or need medical advice, students and employees can speak with our Nurse Triage Team by calling the health center.

The health center is committed to providing a safe, comfortable environment for patients and staff. We recognize patients can find some consultations, examinations, or procedures distressing, and may prefer to have a chaperone present for support. 

 

TeleVisit Medical Appointments

The health center offers TeleVisit medical appointments in an effort to expand health care access for University of Arkansas students, faculty and staff.

  • Using HIPAA-compliant video conferencing, TeleVisits let you access health care services while in the comfort of your own residence hall, off-campus residence or other private location.  All established patients of the Pat Walker Health Center are eligible for visits, but you must be in the state of Arkansas at the time of your TeleVisit to be eligible.
  • To schedule a TeleVisit appointment at the Primary Care Clinic, please call 479-575-4451. To schedule a TeleVisit appointment at the GYN (Women's) Clinic, you can schedule an appointment online or by calling.
