Student Health Service in Visby
What the Student Health Service can help you with
Welcome to the Student Health Service in Visby! We have counsellors that can help you with questions connected to life as a student. You can for example:
- get advice from our counsellors
- receive shorter individual counselling
When you need to turn to other healthcare providers
In some cases, you should turn to other care providers than the Student Health Service. This applies, for example, if:
- you have a physical illness or injuries
- you know that you need to see a doctor to get a prescription or a doctor's certificate
- you want to be assessed for ADHD, autism or dyslexia. Please note that the waiting time for a neuropsychiatric assessment is several years.
- you have more severe or persistent mental health problems, want to be assessed for potential psychotherapy, or want long-term therapy.
In such cases, you should contact a health centre (vårdcentral), or call 1177 (from a foreign phone number dial +46 711 11 77 00).
If you are unsure where to turn for help, you are welcome to book a telephone counselling appointment for advice.
Changed opening
Between 14 May and 16 May the Student Health Service on Campus Gotland is closed. Telephone counselling is open. Back on Monday 19 May.
Telephone counselling and booking an appointment
If you want an appointment for individual counselling, you must first book a telephone appointment to be contacted by a counsellor or psychologist. They will ask questions about what is troubling you, make an assessment, give you advice and set up a first appointment if the Student Health Service is best suited to help you. If not, you will be guided to the right place. If you are unsure where to find help, book an appointment and we will help you.
All staff at the Student Health Service are bound by confidentiality, professional secrecy. No information is released without your consent.
You cannot book a first visit by email or by visiting us.
