Student Health Services offers personal counseling, with two therapists dedicated to medical students. Career counseling is offered in multiple formats: class mentors, Learning Community mentors, the Women in Medicine Mentoring Program, career workshops for first- and second-year students, and clinical department faculty advisors.
