New Location - UC Davis Student Health & Wellness Center
The new Student Health & Wellness Center is located on La Rue Road between Hutchison Drive and Orchard Road, across the street from the Activities and Recreation Center (ARC) and next to the Colleges at La Rue.
Access to the closest parking lot (35) is on Orchard Road. A limited number of patient parking spots are available in Lot 35 for students being seen at SHCS Medical Services. These parking spots are located in front of the Main Entrance and are not guaranteed. Ask for a patient parking permit from the Information Desk at the Main Entrance to place in your car when you arrive.
If patient parking spots are full, A/C/L permit parking, day permit parking, and metered parking spots are also available in lot 35 and in nearby lots.
