Johnson Hospital. UTHealth’s three faculty practice plans—UT Physicians, UT Health Services and UT Dentists—provide quality, compassionate care to the community through more than 1,000 providers in almost 90 specialists in clinical settings spread across the Greater Houston area.
The UTHealth faculty, residents, fellows, staff and students work from lab to bedside on breakthrough research projects that will take the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disease and injury to levels only dreamed of a decade ago.
UTHealth strives for a future free of chronic diseases, providing exceptional care for patients at every age and stage of life. UTHealth develops innovative treatments so patients have a better chance of survival after a serious injury. UTHealth treats patients in their driveway using the first mobile stroke ambulance in the nation. UTHealth works tirelessly to improve the quality of care for its patients and lower costs through better technology.
UTHealth also addresses health care shortages by educating more providers than any other health-related institution in Texas. UTHealth is Houston’s Health University.
