◼︎ Our Story
Built into a national leader.
We take the most complex cases across the region and we innovate, problem-solve, and save lives every day. As the primary birthing hospital in Western PA with the largest NICU in the state, together we set the standards for maternal-fetal health, obstetrics, oncology, bone, joint & bariatric care, orthopaedic care, and so much more.
Even as we’ve built Magee into a national leader, we’ve stayed true to our roots as a community hospital — where nurses, APRNs, and frontline staff work together to provide the highest quality of care.
“We were born here. Our mothers (and even grandmothers!) were nurses here. Some of us have been here for 40 years.”
◼︎ Who we care for
Women, families, and everyone who comes through our doors.
Because we have a reputation for excellence, we care for the sickest and most medically complex babies, mothers, and other patients across the tri-state region.
◼︎ Our Community
About our patients and community.
The area’s patient population overall is sicker than ever and struggling with chronic disease. In Allegheny County, rates of diabetes, heart attacks, respiratory disease, and stroke all exceed national levels.
Women’s & family health
Challenges in our community
Higher rates of preterm births, low birth weights, and cancer for women than the state average.
Severe Maternal Morbidity rose 55% in Allegheny County between 2016 and 2022.
Racial & class disparities
Inequities we see every day
Statewide, Black mothers suffer Severe Maternal Morbidity at more than twice the rate of white women.
County infant mortality is worse than the state average; Black infants are 2X more likely to die before their first birthday than white infants.
