Mental Health Services - Mockup

Mental Health Services

The Baptist Health Sciences University College of Osteopathic Medicine’s “Mental Wellness Department” cultivates the mental wellness of medical students through direct care and supportive services that are easily accessible, empowering, and effective. Mirroring the unique, holistic, patient-centered approach of doctors of Osteopathic Medicine, the integrated presence of a clinical psychologist at BUCOM is paramount to a medical education environment that is student-centered and embraces care of the mind, body, and spirit of the providers trained.
