Helping patients live better lives, every day

While managing some of the highest COVID-19 volumes in Philadelphia, our medical team has simultaneously achieved survival rates far better than the national and regional averages. We have also led or participated in dozens of COVID clinical trials.

For the safety of our patients, visitors, and staff, we have implemented a weapon detection screening system at Temple University Hospital — Main Campus. This system is seamless — with no check-in line and no removal of items necessary.

We are proud of our Temple physicians from 43 specialties for being named to Philadelphia magazine’s “Top Doctors” list for 2024.

To keep our patients, visitors, clinicians and staff safe, we have restricted visitation for all Temple Health hospital campuses and outpatient offices. Please review our latest visitor policy information.
