Clinical Trials & You

In our effort to find new ways to prevent and treat disease, we conduct clinical trials—carefully controlled research studies involving human participants. If you’re the patient of a UBMD physician, you may be invited to participate in a trial, giving you access to promising therapies and additional medical care from our skilled, compassionate team.

We have expertise in virtually every medical specialty, so our clinical trials cover a wide range of illnesses—another reason people turn to us for help with complex medical conditions.

Choose UBMD, and we’ll let you know if you may be eligible for a trial and—if you’re interested—how to get involved.
