The media is full of information, though not always true. Learn four common myths we have heard our peers say and why they are not true. 


Rena Tacdol, MD, primary care doctor at UHS sees students for their cough/colds/flus, belly pain, basic gynecological care, STI issues, birth control consultations, depression/anxiety/stress, preventative care, and everything in between. Fun fact: She  was also a Health Worker as a UC Berkeley undergrad!

Her favorite thing about Cal: the students. " There's this fantastic vibrant energy about them. They're going places and doing things and changing the world for the better. Also, I love the diversity of the student body. They're from all over the world and give me good ideas about my next travel destination!"
