At UPMC, our commitment to excellence is visible in every corner of the communities we serve. We believe that expert care and resources shouldn’t be limited by geography, ensuring that patients, no matter where they are, have access to our world-class expertise.
As the cover story of the November issue of First Friday, UPMC Hillman Cancer Center is pioneering groundbreaking cancer treatments across the globe, bringing advanced therapies directly to patients close to home. The knowledge and lessons learned at these innovative facilities are continuously shared among colleagues throughout the UPMC Hillman Cancer Center network. This collaborative approach ensures that every patient benefits from the latest discoveries and the collective experience of our experts, no matter which Hillman location they visit.
Expertise at UPMC isn’t confined to our cancer centers, of course. Our physicians, experts, and clinical teams work to improve care for all, with leaders like Kathleen Sweeney, DO, training the next generation of family physicians, and Matthew Lehrer, PhD, helping staff manage the end of daylight saving time, and our award-winning nurses exemplifying compassion and dedication across UPMC.
