UPMC Pinnacle is an ACGME-accredited three-year Emergency Medicine Residency Program that accepts six residents per class. We welcomed our first class of EM interns in July 2019 and graduated our first class of EM residents (transfers from Drexel/Hahnemann) in 2020. We are passionate about the practice of community emergency medicine, and we welcome anyone with an interest in emergency medicine in central PA to check us out!
