We Know UPMC

In the last several years, the attorneys at Berger & Lagnese have successfully peeled away the cloak of secrecy that has long shrouded UPMC to reveal a system that, in the view of one recent jury, is broken and badly in need of repair.  In pursuing our clients' lawsuits against UPMC, we discovered, for example, that a world-renowned neurosurgeon, Peter J. Jannetta, was given the green light by UPMC to continue using a surgical technique that was widely and universally condemned in the leading medical literature.  To cite another example, in pressing for answers from UPMC concerning the death of a young patient at UPMC Shadyside, we discovered that UPMC's nurses are sometimes placed on the job without basic training on some of the hospital's most critical patient safety policies and procedures.

If you were a patient at one of the many UPMC hospitals and you suspect that you were the victim of medical malpractice or medical negligence, you should call us at 412-471-4300 or 800-350-6161, or click here.  Berger & Lagnese, lawyers specializing in medical malpractice, work on cases in Pittsburgh, Greensburg, Uniontown, Erie, Washington, and all courts in Western Pennsylvania.
