ER at UPMC EAST is a disaster waiting to happen. I spent 36 hours in an ER room getting diagnosed from an injury. I am not complaining about the waiting time. With Covid-19 all facilities are jammed to get patients to diagnostic equipment like an MRI. I literally watched a patient die while 3 of the 4 nurses that were to take care of my area or ER rooms practiced being lazy, talkative on a variety of non medical subjects for 36 straight hours. There were more staff than necessary. Really. But, problems arose from not paying ... read more

UPMC did not properly set up the referral for my child's specialist visit and after 5 MONTHS of back and forth with their billing and my insurance trying to find out which hoops to jump through, their billing department fully aware that I have worked continually for months since the very first bill and insurance is slow, sent the bill to collections after assuring me they would not. Incompetent billing is going to hurt my credit and I haven't met a specialist there yet who was worth this kind of effort, not one. Garbage.

My family and I cannot thank the amazing team of doctors and nurses that saved my fathers life this week. In the last few years we have had two family members fall into unfortunate circumstances where they were under the medical care in UPMC Hamot's ICU and each time we were blessed to be treated with incredible care. The doctors and nurses took the time to sit with our family and explain in detail each step of every process. The staff remembered all of our names making us feel like we weren't just another bed/room number. W... read more
