Located on the ground floor of the Jerome L. Greene Science Center, the Wellness Center provides health resources to area residents. ColumbiaDoctors host community-based initiatives that train members of the Harlem community to become health advocates to prevent stroke and promote mental health. The center also provides free cholesterol and blood pressure screenings, health insurance enrollment, weight counseling, and other services.

Ask-A-Nurse Hotline
The Columbia Wellness Center aims to empower individuals by offering health education and community resources. We know that people may feel uneasy about visiting their healthcare providers in-person, especially if all they have is a simple question that requires medical expertise that's beyond their knowledge. We are here to clarify any questions you may have and to offer emotional support and guidance as you continue to take care of yourself during this difficult time.

Please note that the Wellness Center is not a clinical practice.
