Allegheny General Hospital

At Allegheny General Hospital, our physicians and healthcare staff have earned an international reputation for excellence and innovation in education, research and, above all, the care of patients. Our doctors are world-renowned in their fields and lead exceptional teams of nurses, technicians, clinicians and support staff who deliver advanced, compassionate care with the personal attention every patient deserves.

Our hospital is a national leader in cardiovascular, cancer, neuroscience and orthopaedic and rehabilitation care and offers a wide array of medical and surgical specialties. And, as one of the largest tertiary facilities in the region, we serve as the primary medical provider for orthopaedic and rehabilitation care for the Pittsburgh Pirates. 

Thomson Healthcare has recognized AGH as one of the country’s 100 Top Hospitals -- and recently named our network of hospitals one of the best healthcare systems in the nation. We have also received the Consumer Choice Award for Western Pennsylvania from the National Research Corporation, and Solucient Inc., one of the healthcare industry’s leading quality research organizations, recognizes Allegheny General as a Top 100 hospital in the country for both orthopaedic surgery and the treatment of stroke.

We were the first hospital in the region to receive designation as a Level I Shock Trauma Center, which is the highest designation available, and our LifeFlight aeromedical service was the first to fly in the northeastern United States.

Annually, our nearly 800 doctors and approximately 5,000 staff members admit more than 29,000 patients; log over 68,000 emergency visits; and perform more than 21,000 surgical procedures -- all while upholding a commitment to excellence in patient care, medical education and research.
