From completing your paperwork to arriving for your appointment, we have you covered with a step-by-step guide to your visit.
After scheduling your appointment
You should receive a new patient packet in the mail with important information about your upcoming visit, what to expect and essential paperwork.
If you do not receive your patient packet within 2 weeks after confirming your new patient appointment, please call our office at 352-294-5400.
1. Log in to myUFHealth
New patients will receive instructions to log into our secure, patient portal system: MyUFHealth.
On the MyUFHealth patient portal, you can access your medical records, complete patient paperwork, view appointment notes and communicate directly with your care team.
2. Complete pre-appointment forms
Prior to your appointment, you will complete a series of forms related to your health history, medications and more.
Each clinic or service has specific forms to help your care team provide the best care and treatment possible.
3. Review pre-appointment instructions
Depending on the clinic you see during your visit, there may specific instructions about medications or patient documents related to your appointment.
Some clinics may request that you stop your medication for 12-24 hours prior to your appointment due to the nature of the evaluation.
