Locations for UPMC Traveling Patient Services
UPMC helps traveling patients connect with our world-renowned hospitals and specialty care centers in the U.S., Italy, Ireland, and beyond. For some, it may mean travel to Pittsburgh, PA (U.S) but for others, it could be a trip to a location closer to home. Regardless, our facilities are equipped to address the most complex clinical cases.
