If you or a family member have had a positive experience with UHealth, UM invites you to share your story. It may be a UHealth representative who helped you schedule an appointment, a compassionate physician who took the time to explain test results and review treatment options, or a nurse who turned a routine screening into an enjoyable encounter.

Sixty-year-old Anthony Jewell, now in remission from esophageal cancer, says MyUHealthChart helps him and his wife keep his treatment on track. A component of the UChart electronic medical records system, MyUHealthChart allows patients to access their medical records securely from any computer, making it easy to stay on top of information such as lab results, appointment summaries, medications, and immunizations.

“My wife and caregiver of 30 years is comforted by knowing she won’t have to remember or explain my entire medical history at each visit,” says Jewell, who was treated for his condition at Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, where he now volunteers and mentors patients.

Jewell’s use of MyUHealthChart to monitor his progress is one of the many stories that are being told in an advertising campaign highlighting UHealth – The University of Miami Health System. The UHealth Discovery Series, which features daily ads in The Miami Herald and el Nuevo Herald, showcases the health system’s state-of-the-art clinical care and clinicians, well-known centers of excellence and lesser-known specialties, the promise of biomedical research, and heartening stories that reflect UHealth’s compassion and impact on patients’ lives and the community.

“Each and every one of us should take pride in the lifesaving work that occurs at UHealth every day,” Pascal J. Goldschmidt, senior vice president for medical affairs, dean of the Miller School, and CEO of UHealth, wrote in a recent letter to medical campus faculty and staff. “We are delighted that, through this campaign, we will have an opportunity to recognize many of the programs and people who represent us so well.”
