About Upstate Independent Medical Association
(UIMA)
Your Connection to Quality,
Independent Healthcare
Welcome to the Upstate Independent Medical Association (UIMA). We believe that the best healthcare comes from a strong, direct relationship between patients and their physicians. Our organization was founded on a straightforward principle: to empower both patients and independent doctors, creating a healthier community for everyone.
What We Do for Physicians
In an ever-changing healthcare landscape, independence is a strength. UIMA offers a robust referral platform designed to help independent practitioners thrive. Our network allows you to connect with colleagues across various specialties, fostering collaboration that leads to comprehensive, coordinated care for your patients. Together, we can maintain the autonomy of private practice while delivering the highest standard of medicine.
Why We Are Different
At UIMA, we are more than just a directory; we are a community. We are passionate advocates for the independent practice model because we know it leads to better outcomes and more satisfying experiences for patients and doctors alike. We champion a healthcare environment where quality is the priority and the patient-physician relationship is at the heart of every decision.
