With this acquisition, SSC will be the fourth hospital of UPMC in Ireland, joining UPMC Aut Even in Kilkenny, UPMC Whitfield in Waterford, and UPMC Kildare in Clane in addition to sports medicine and outreach centres spread out over the nation.

UPMC International president Charles Bogosta said: “With the acquisition of the Sports Surgery Clinic, we will have the ability to expand our already trusted and high-quality care to more patients across Ireland and beyond.

“SSC will complement our existing network of orthopaedic care in the US and Europe and ensures that we can provide access to care for more patients, close to home.” 

The proposed acquisition is the most recent development in UPMC’s clinical care in Ireland.
