UMD Health Center, Bldg 140

As the University of Maryland's campus clinic, this is a convenient first stop for students dealing with mid-semester illnesses, physicals, immunizations, blood draws, and prescriptions. Reviewers repeatedly single out individual nurses and lab technicians for going above and beyond, naming the likes of Mary, Tinica, and Robin for their patience, skill, and reassuring bedside manner. The pharmacy and X-ray services also earn nods for being quick and professional once you get going.

That said, the overall rating reflects real and consistent complaints. Several reviewers describe rude or unprofessional front-desk and registration staff and frustrating experiences with specific physicians, including reports of feeling dismissed or unwelcome. The result is an uneven picture: many patients feel well cared for by the clinical staff they meet, while others leave disappointed. For students out of better options, it remains an accessible and central resource.
