About Upperline Health
Upperline Health is the nation’s largest provider group dedicated to lower-extremity, wound, and vascular care. Since 2017, our mission has been to transform specialty medicine by integrating value-based care models that improve outcomes, enhance access, and simplify the healthcare experience for patients with chronic conditions.
Today, Upperline operates in 7 states with more than 130 clinics nationwide — and we are rapidly growing. As we expand, we are adding Nurse Practitioners to support our innovative primary care model focused on proactive, patient-centered care.
Triage is temporary.
Treatment is transformative.
Our providers work within a highly collaborative interdisciplinary care team including physicians, advanced practice providers, care navigators, pharmacists, dieticians, and social workers. Together, we deliver integrated care that addresses both immediate needs and long-term health goals, always putting the patient at the center of value-based care.
