How to schedule an appointment

Most appointments can be scheduled online through our secure patient portal.

Log in to myCornellHealth using your Cornell NetID & password and click "Appointments."

Schedule by phone

Please call 607-255-5155 during business hours to speak with a scheduler.

  Exceptions: 

Pre-appointment questionnaires 

Pre-appointment questionnaires are required for most appointments (not required for allergy and immunization visits).

You must complete your pre-appointment questionnaire(s) before your visit. Log in to myCornellHealth and click "Appointments."

  • If questionnaires are not completed before your visit, you may be asked to reschedule.
  • If a questionnaire you receive does not seem to match your health concern, call us during business hours (607-255-5155) to discuss.

CAPS appointments: You will have a separate brief Wellbeing Assessment survey to complete 10 minutes before your appointment. Please check in early enough before your appointment to complete this survey.

Note: Occupational Medicine patients will receive questionnaire information by email with instructions for accessing questionnaires through myCority, not myCornellHealth. 

When to check in for your appointment

Plan to arrive / check in 10 minutes prior to your appointment to complete the check-in process before your appointment begins (CAPS clients must also complete a brief Wellbeing Assessment survey). 

If you arrive more than 5 minutes late for your appointment, you may be asked to reschedule.

    Canceling / rescheduling appointments

    If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, please do so at least 24 hours before your appointment time. 

    *If you have already completed your pre-appointment questionnaire, please CALL if you would like to reschedule your appointment so you do not have to complete a new questionnaire.

    Late arrival & missed appointment policy

    • If you arrive more than 5 minutes late for your appointment, you may be asked to reschedule.
    • A $25 fee will be charged for missed appointments.
