UHC is a collaboration between UT Health Northeast (The University of Texas Health Science Center at Tyler) and UT Tyler. It houses two clinics: the University Physician Associates (UPA) Clinic, which is open to the public, and the UT Tyler Student Health Clinic. UHC opened in spring 2006. <\/p>\n<p>UT Health Northeast President Dr. Kirk Calhoun (pictured) told KTBB the expansion has \u201cbeen very high on my radar; we\u2019re very happy to have gotten that accomplished.\u201d David Hullum, associate vice president for business development at UT Health Northeast, noted, \u201cIn the past three years, appointments at University Health Clinic have grown by 18 percent. With this $1.5 expansion, we can offer more services and allow for future growth.\u201d UT Tyler President Dr. Rodney H. Mabry was among those on hand for the celebration, and he was upbeat about it as well. <\/p>\n<p>The expansion increased the size of UHC from 10,000 square feet to 13,500 square feet. A new digital mammography suite, four new pediatric allergy exam rooms (for a total of 14 exam rooms, including a procedure room), and an expanded waiting area fill the 6,100 square feet of new and renovated space. The UPA Clinic offers services in family medicine, allergy care, rheumatology, and cardiology. Allergy testing, radiology, digital mammography, and laboratory services are provided on site. The student clinic is available to serve the health care needs of students enrolled at UT Tyler. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TYLER \u2014 University Health Clinic (UHC), on the UT Tyler campus, held an open house Thursday to celebrate its expansion.
