University Cancer & Blood Center (UCBC), a leading oncology and hematology practice for Northeast Georgia, is recognizing the community’s need for greater access to primary care and family medicine by launching University Health Alliance (UHA), a comprehensive practice serving greater Athens.
University Health Alliance offers two convenient locations, one on North Chase Street and another on Old Jefferson Road. UHA provides a full suite of primary care services, from pediatrics and adult medicine, to wellness check-ups and preventative services, to acute and chronic care.
“Our mission is to deliver hometown primary care for world-class wellness,” says Dr. Ling Li. “We firmly believe all families in our community should have easy access to reliable providers in their own backyard. And UHA is delivering on that promise out of the gate.”
Families can choose UHA with confidence. Acclaimed physicians Dr. Li, Dr. Samuel J. Dolezal, and Dr. G. Steven Chesser lead a reputable and collaborative staff. Together, they have more than five decades of combined internal medicine experience.
“After spending several decades practicing in Athens, I hold the community close to my heart,” says Dr. Chesser. “As part of UHA, I look forward to continuing to meet patients where they are.”
“Having the opportunity to help open UHA in Athens is an honor,” adds Dr. Dolezal. “We’re intent on answering the community’s needs by delivering the utmost professionalism with convenience and compassion.”
