How to update your UF Health Web Directory profile
Example of Dr. Rahman's UF Health directory page
The UF Health Web Directory contains information on all UF Health-related persons, regardless of their location or affiliation. This includes faculty, staff and students for UF, as well as staff at UF Health Shands (and related hospitals), and UF Health Jacksonville.
Your UF Health Web Directory profile is a comprehensive profile with various customizable fields such as: accomplishments, board certifications, clinical profile, research profile, reaching profile, publications, grants, patents, education and contact details.
The directory contains powerful search capabilities, along with the ability to easily update and manage most of your profile information. If you are a clinician, it also feeds directly into your UFHealth.org profile on UFHealth.org, meaning you can update that content by updating your UF Health Directory profile!
You can update your profile information from the UF Health Web Directory homepage by clicking “My Profile” in the upper right-hand corner. The website will ask you to login using either your Gatorlink ID and password, or your Shands ID and password. Once you are logged in, the site will redirect you to your profile where you can begin updating your profile.
Please note that you cannot see a person’s complete profile unless you are logged in; certain information is therefore not publicly accessible.
You can update the following fields in your UF Health Web Directory profile:
A look at the Teaching Profile field
- Profile Photo: Profile photos are integrated into The Bridge profiles for users and on profiles for UF Health providers. If you would like to get a professional portrait taken for free (to UF Health faculty and staff only), you can view the open studio hours here.
- Profile Fields: Editable fields will be marked with a small plus sign or pencil icon that you can click on to edit that field. As you edit and save each field, your directory profile will be updated.
- Teaching Profile: The Teaching Profile is a section of a faculty member’s directory profile where they can post a short description of their teaching philosophy and manage a list of course taught in the past to help students, colleagues, and other interested parties find syllabi and description of the course.
- Publications: Publications for directory profiles can be updated directly through the profile page. They can be automatically added one-at-a-time or in a group using a PubMed ID or DOI number.
