UPMC is a small community-based hospital. Located in the town of Lititz, in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, this state-of-the-art facility stands as a leader of healthcare services in the community. The hospital has been an osteopathic teaching site for 80 years. We accept osteopathic students from schools throughout the country.
One of the assets of the hospital is its sustained DO training at the site and within the community. At UPMC, old school meets new school when it comes to training. OMM is practiced by many of the Family Medicine physicians and is incorporated into the curriculum at the hospital. Rotations include opportunities to round with many of the medical specialists in the area.
Most rotations are conducted in the community. The student will be expected to travel to various physician sites.
