Media Contacts
The UPMC Media Relations web site provides reporters with quick access to news from the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) and the University of Pittsburgh Schools of the Health Sciences.
Updated daily, the home page is a comprehensive source of medical information for journalists which includes news releases, background information, media kits, photos and a topical and alphabetical list of experts. We invite journalists to join our mailing list to electronically receive our releases.
The Media Relations staff, under the direction of Frank Raczkiewicz, are available to assist you 24/7. During non-business hours, we can be reached through the UPMC paging operator at 412-647-2345.
Sincerely,
Paul Wood
