MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
Dear Colleagues,
It is with a heavy heart that I write to acknowledge the recent tragedy at UPMC-Memorial in York. Our thoughts are with the courageous physicians, advanced practice providers, nurses, hospital staff, and law enforcement officers affected by this devastating event. We extend our deepest sympathies to the family and friends of Officer Andrew Duarte, who made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty, as well as to the West York Police Department.

UPMC Leader Surgery Center Now Offers Robotic-Assisted Surgery in their ASC
UPMC Leader Surgery Center is the first ambulatory service center in central Pennsylvania — and the first in UPMC — to offer robotic-assisted surgery. The center, located in the Outpatient Services building at UPMC Memorial, is a fully accredited, state-of-the-art outpatient facility with eight large surgical suites.
Led by the surgeons of Leader Surgical Associates-UPMC, surgeons will now have access to the latest robotic technology in an
outpatient setting, including the da Vinci Surgical System® which is a more precise and less invasive surgery option. Robotic-assisted surgery gives surgeons the ability to operate on hard-to-reach areas of the body and perform complex procedures with improved visualization and dexterity.
UPMC Leader Surgery Center, which first opened in 2000 and moved to the new UPMC Memorial Campus in 2019, comprises a certified team of surgeons and experienced nursing staff who provide quality care and same day procedures including: gastrointestinal surgery and colonoscopies, general surgery, gynecologic surgery, ophthalmologic surgery, orthopaedic surgery, and plastic and reconstructive surgery.
To refer a patient to Leader Surgical Associates-UPMC, please call 717-714-3111.
