About
Opening its doors in 1886 with modest facilities and medical resources, Allegheny General Hospital (AGH) in Pittsburgh has evolved from 50 beds inside of two adjoining brick homes into one of the country’s premier health-care institutions. Through the decades, our talented and expert physicians and health-care professionals have always dedicated themselves to providing patients with innovative treatments, pioneering research discoveries, and exceptional medical care that is both personalized and compassionate.
Our doctors are world-renowned in their fields and lead exceptional teams of nurses, technicians, clinicians and support staff who deliver advanced care in virtually every medical and surgical specialty. Allegheny General is a national leader in cancer, cardiovascular, neuroscience and orthopaedic and rehabilitation care.
We have been recognized by U.S. News and World Report as one of the country’s best hospitals. Truven Health Analytics, formerly Thomson Reuters Healthcare business, identified AGH as one of the country’s “100 Top Hospitals” and recently named our network of hospitals one of the best health-care systems in the nation.
