All members of the New York UHS healthcare system work together to improve our community’s health and meet its needs with state-of-the-art hospitals, physician practices, long-term care and home care services. We strive to be a great place to work, practice medicine and receive care.
UHS is the New York Southern Tier’s largest and most comprehensive provider of healthcare services. A locally owned, not-for-profit system, it is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors comprised of residents of the region. Founded in Greater Binghamton in 1981, UHS was formed through the consolidation of three community hospitals. Over the years it has grown to encompass four hospitals, plus long-term care and home care services, and physician practices in Broome and surrounding counties.
Our pledge: We listen. We show respect. We give hope.
