Watkins Health Services operates an immediate care clinic for currently employed KU faculty and staff, along with the following services: allergy injections/immunizations, athletic training evaluation and treatment, flu shots, laboratory tests, pharmacy, radiology, tobacco cessation support, and travel health appointments.
