Truman Medical Centers/University Health is an academic medical center providing quality healthcare to the Kansas City community and beyond, for those with the very best insurance and those with no insurance at all.

Truman Medical Centers/University Health doctors, in affiliation with the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Medicine (UMKC), teach the doctors of the future. They stay ahead of medical advances, providing innovative instruction to students and cutting-edge care to patients. Being an academic medical center, Truman Medical Centers/University Health takes the toughest cases, so our healthcare providers can handle whatever you bring us.

With two acute care hospitals (one in the UMKC Health Sciences District just south of Downtown and a second location in Southeast Kansas City near Lee's Summit), Kansas City's largest behavioral health program, University Health, downtown's only freestanding specialist and surgery center, and a Women's and Primary Health location under construction, TMC/UH provides care from birth through senior years.

Speaking of birth, Truman Medical Centers/University Health delivers nearly half of all babies born in Kansas City, Missouri, each year. Both of our Birthplace locations—at Truman Medical Centers Health Sciences District (TMC HSD) and TMC Lakewood—have a Children's Mercy connection. In The Birthplace at TMC HSD, that connection is literal—with high-risk pregnancy experts, moms and babies crossing the Bridge of Hope each day.
