Physicals

Saint Mary’s does not require that all students have a physical. Physicals are required under the following conditions.

Athletes
Any student participating in intercollegiate athletics must have had a physical exam within three months prior to the beginning of his/her season

Your healthcare provider should complete page two of the health form. This form should be turned into the Student Health Office. Please do not turn the form into your coach, the trainer, or anyone else on campus. Doing so could result in your being unable to start your sport.
Chronic Health Problems

Any student with a chronic health problem such as asthma, diabetes, epilepsy, mental health conditions, or physical disabilities is expected to have a physical within three to six months prior to the start of his or her first semester at Saint Mary’s. In addition, the physician should supply additional information regarding treatment, medication, or other special needs as warranted for continued care while at school.

Other
The university may request that a student complete a physical or provide appropriate medical documentation in the event of concern about a stated or suspected health condition.

Where to Obtain Your Physical
Ideally your physical should be completed by your primary provider. For these purposes a primary provider is limited to a medical doctor, nurse practitioner, or physician’s assistant. In the event this is not possible, Student Health Services will be happy to assist the student in obtaining an appointment in Winona. Any costs related to obtaining a physical are the responsibility of the student.

Student Health Services

Committed to providing quality, accessible healthcare for all students.

This includes assessment and management of acute illness and support of student health for ongoing conditions. Health education, health promotion and mentorship provide long-term benefits to students as they learn to navigate today’s complex healthcare environment and appropriately utilize limited healthcare resources.

Confidentiality:

All Wellness Center appointments and records are held in strict confidence. Information will not be shared with parents, faculty, administration, peers or anyone else without the student’s consent. An exception is made if a life-threatening situation arises.

Schedule an Appointment:

You will need to set up an appointment through the My Winona Health portal. If you already have a portal account, you can skip to the attachment which walks you through how to make the appointment. If you don't have a portal account, follow the instructions below.

If you don't have a portal account,you must call 507.457.7648 to register yourself in the Winona Health system before you are able to make an appointment. Be sure to mention that you are a Saint Mary's University student. They will ask for some basic information such as name, birthdate, address, and Social Security Number. Your SSN is to serve as a security question. If you don't have it, a different security question can be used. Once this is completed, you will receive an email with a direct link to make an account for the MyWH portal. This link is only active for 24 hours. You should receive this link immediately. If you don't, call back and ensure they heard your email address correctly. You can then schedule on the My Winona Health portal or through their app going forward. Instructions for how to navigate the portal once you reach that step are below.
