For more than 140 years, UFS has been trusted to provide high quality healthcare to multiple generations. We have remained committed to evolving and adapting to the needs of our community, which is why UFS is still here, caring for you today.
Beginning with a name change in 2023 from UFS Dispensaries to UFS Healthcare, to better reflect the range of services we now provide, we then introduced a new brand in July of 2024. The brand embodies care, health, community and compassion. It reflects our deep connection to the community nurtured over more than a century.
What’s next for UFS?
We’re an organisation that is constantly progressing in response to the healthcare requirements of the regions we serve.
November 2024 was a busy month for UFS. First, we opened our first ever UFS Eye Care site, marking our entry into optical health. Find out more about UFS Eye Care including special member offers, services and online booking click here.
Also in November, our Ballarat Urgent Care Clinic relocated to a larger location within the heart of Ballarat’s hospital precinct. You can learn more about the clinic here.
Our next exciting project is the opening of a brand new, purpose built medical centre at Lucas, Ballarat. We identified a need in this rapidly growing area for a large, high quality healthcare facility offering GPs, pathology, radiology and other specialist services. Lucas UFS Medical open 3 February and online bookings are available here.
There’ll be plenty more news to come in the months ahead so if you’d like to stay up-to-date with our progress, please follow UFS on Facebook at the below link:
