Primary care is sometimes called the backbone of medicine. Your primary care provider is the physician, nurse practitioner or physician assistant who knows you best — your true healthcare partner. Because this provider sees you when you are healthy, he or she has the perspective to understand you best when you’re sick. And he or she may be the professional who treats every member of your family, through every stage of life.
UHS aims to make primary care easy and convenient for residents of the Southern Tier, no matter how near or far you live from any of the four UHS hospitals. The system has been adding providers and expanding hours and services to make access better than ever. All primary care locations offer same-day appointments and are currently accepting new patients. They are also connected with all other UHS locations through the electronic health record system, so your test results and medical records are accessible, no matter where in the UHS system you have received care.
