High-Quality Stroke Care

At UPMC, we are committed to being a leading provider of high-quality medical and surgical stroke treatment. This quality is a result of a combination of neurologists, neurosurgeons, and emergency medicine specialists who are among the national leaders in stroke therapy and dedicated to providing excellent patient care. We work to reduce the impact of a stroke by increasing awareness through community health screenings, education events, and staff education.

UPMC offers the highest level of stroke care at three locations:

• UPMC Presbyterian 
• UPMC Mercy 
• UPMC Hamot 

All locations are certified Comprehensive Stroke Centers, which meets the highest standards required to provide complex stroke care by The Joint Commission.
