Step right up for tech service

Many of us can’t live without our computers and phones. Fortunately, there’s a place where you can find technical support for these essential devices. UF Health IT’s Walk-Up Help Desk provides faculty, staff and students with assistance when technical issues arise.

Anyone with a UF Health-related IT problem can stop by for assistance. Be sure to ring the doorbell when you arrive so the team of 15 end-user specialists — who receive around 220 calls a day — is aware that someone is waiting to be seen.

Specialists can help connect your managed or personal mobile devices and laptops to UF Health wireless networks, email, VPNs and other UF Health systems. If you are unable to leave your workstation, a specialist can assist you by phone and remote into your computer, if necessary.
