About Stanford Medicine Partners
University HealthCare Alliance (UHA) – doing business as (dba) Stanford Medicine Partners (SMP) – is the medical foundation created out of the aspiration for Stanford Medicine and local, high-quality providers to partner together to provide a greater range of leading-edge health care services to patients in surrounding communities. The foundation was formed on January 1, 2011, as a 1206 (L) Medical Foundation organized to operate and own medical practices.
Stanford Medicine Partners is comprised of three medical groups with over 70 clinic locations and over 350 board-certified primary care and specialty care providers located across Bay Area communities. SMP also includes an affiliated IPA network – Affinity Medical Group – which provides additional high-quality, innovative, and affordable health care solutions, to give our patients the choices, flexibility, and high standards of quality care they deserve.
Stanford Medicine Partners contributes to Stanford Medicine’s well-respected health system as a broader, more integrated regional health system. Together, SMP and Stanford Medicine are pioneering new ways to practice medicine across multiple locations, using Stanford’s advanced resources to create seamless continuity of care for every patient.
