Speech Pathology students working with patients in clinics

The Interprofessional Community Clinics (ICCs) are a multi-specialty group practice established in 2019 by joining new and existing service lines to better serve our community. Our collaborative relationships allow us to provide quality clinical training experiences for students by meeting authentic community needs in an outpatient clinical setting.

The ICCs are an intra-college collaboration that is both an educational and community asset. All services have grown in direct response to an identified community need. The ICCs have the ability to meet very unique community needs due to the availability of a broad range of clinical and research experts in their respective fields.

Our services are provided to community residents and members of the BSU community on a fee-for-service basis and through contracts with third party payers and state and local agencies. Please refer to the desired service area/s below for information regarding cost of services.
