UPMC Lifestyle Medicine is a medical specialty within the Department of Family Medicine. By looking at the root cause of disease through six categories of health (referred to as the six pillars of Lifestyle Medicine), research shows patients who implement Lifestyle Medicine strategies can improve how they feel and function, report improved satisfaction and experiences in their health care, have better outcomes, and spend less money and resources on managing health.
