Mission
Utah Partners for Health (UPFH) exists because people matter!
Our mission is to be everyone’s first choice in medical care as we provide compassionate, comprehensive, quality care to empower underserved individuals, families, and communities in a patient centered medical home.
Our Promise
We are a patient-centered family medical home (PCMH) which means our providers can provide primary care services to patients of ALL AGES. We network with many specialists, and additional service providers, to connect you with quality specialty care at reduced prices when needed. As a patient, you are encouraged to establish a relationship with your provider, and to see the same team for each visit, so they can really get to know you and your medical needs.
Patient Rights
At UPFH we value and respect you. We offer every patient the same access to care, the same rights, and the same responsibilities, regardless of race, color, culture, language, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, age, and physical or mental disability. Our goal is to provide excellent health care to empower you and your family to work together with us to improve your health and overall well-being and the well-being of our community.
