Imported medical data from my provider is in metric how do I change the unit measurement??

The data imported from my doctor was originally in imperial units, but Apple Health converts them to metric. Temperature and other vitals are listed in metric units even though the original info was imperial. Can I change this?

Can the clinical data be imported into the regular health area? I don't want to go back and manually enter all of the clinical data in the body measurements area and the other clinical info on the Apple Health App but it only shows what I have entered manually or through an app. Is there a way to import this data to merge with what I enter as opposed to just having it as a record in clinical data? The biggest reasons besides it will take forever is because the clinical data is in metric and not imperial. Not being able to kind of defeats the purpose of having it. Thanks Spooky Boo

Share my Apple This was never really answered: I successfully linked my Apple Health on my iPhone 11 PRO to my Providence MyChart system (as well as the UCLA, and Maine Health etc.) I can see years' worth of my medical data from these sites on my iWatch 7, and my phone. My primary healthcare doctor would like to see my Apple Health information (my EKG's, HR, Oxygen/Blood numbers recorded from my iWatch. The Apple app says my doctor needs to approve data transfer in that direction. This makes no sense. AND, my doctor, and the MyChart IT team, have no idea how to do it. Please help.

Are you in a region that uses metric and you have your iPhone set to that region? You can adjust those settings in Health, but Health will set your units based on your region. Go into the particular section and try changing the setting there.
