Medical Records

Your medical record is kept confidential at all times and is not associated with your academic record. Schiffert Health Center values the privacy of its patients and the confidentiality of the personal health information entrusted to us. We keep a strict privacy practice. Medical records are retained for a period of six years following graduation or last treatment at Schiffert Health Center.
