You can get your ongoing allergy shots at UVM Student Health Services. We do not offer allergy tests or prescribe allergy shots in the clinic.
If you are a new or current allergy patient and plan on continuing your allergy shots through Student Health, please notify us by calling our office at (802) 656-3350, ext. 1.

1. Have your home allergist complete this checklist (PDF) and fax it to the UVM Student Health Services Allergy Clinic at: 802-656-8178.
