About Us Our
Experts The Division of Pulmonary, Allergy, and Critical Care Medicine (PACCM) includes specialists who are board certified in the fields of pulmonary medicine, critical care medicine, and allergic disorders of the lung. In addition to providing care for your illness, these doctors also participate in the teaching and training of new physicians, and conduct research in all types of lung disease and problems. These physicians attend national and international meetings to present and review the latest findings in the care of patients with lung disease. Visit our University of Pittsburgh site to learn more about our teaching and research programs. In recognition of their expertise in the care of patients with lung disease, numerous PACCM Division faculty members are listed in The Best Doctors in America. U.S. News and World Report's "America's Best Hospitals" has also ranked the UPMC Pulmonary program 16th in a national ranking of all respiratory disorders programs. This ranking is based upon the reputation of board-certified specialists (a survey of 150 in each specialty area); predicted mortality rates; and various medical data (e.g. nurse/bed ratio, technology index, discharges) submitted to the American Hospital Association. In addition to our mission of education and research in lung disease, our doctors are committed to provide world class patient care for a broad range of common and rare lung conditions.
