WIT Medical Centre

The WIT Health Centre was formed in March 1987. The aim of the healthcare scheme is to provide medical and nursing care to students who often put their health low on their list of priorities. The Medical Centre provides a holistic approach to student healthcare.

The scheme is provided by Dr. Sharon O'Donnell, Dr. Sean McBrinn, Dr. Lisa O'Neill, Dr. Caitriona Mooney, Nurses Geraldine Harrison, Tara Bourke, Eleanor Rossiter and our Practice Manager; Jean Hubbard, and the team of secretarial and receptionist staff.
