GREAT VIEWS. NO WAITING. Next-day scheduling for imaging services. If you live in Canada and your doctor determines that you need diagnostic imaging — such as an MRI, CT scan, or x-ray — you could be waiting weeks and weeks for that procedure. And for many people, that’s too long to wait without answers. Instead, you can schedule your procedure immediately with UPMC Hamot in Erie, Pennsylvania — just an hour and 40 minutes from the Peace Bridge. And you’ll have your results in hand before you leave.

UPMC is known throughout the region for delivering the highest-quality digital imaging utilizing the latest technology. We have more radiologists with subspecialty experience than any other provider in the region. And we make scheduling your procedure fast, convenient, and affordable. It’s your health. It’s your call. To schedule

a diagnostic imaging procedure at UPMC Hamot, call 1-877-320-UPMC (8762). Or visit UPMCHamot.org/Canada for more information.

UPMC Hamot 201 State St., Erie, PA 16550, USA

Affiliated with the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, UPMC is ranked #10 best hospital by U.S. News & World Report.

HELLO, ERIE!

Erie Heritage

HELLO HERITAGE! Erie is Pennsylvania’s fourth largest city and is rich in history from maritime to wine. Erie County was formed in the 1800’s after Pennsylvania purchased the Erie Triangle from the U.S. Government in 1792 for approximately $151,000. The new county was then named for Lake Erie and the Eriez Native American Indian tribe, which occupied the shoreline more than 140 years earlier. The first European settlers in the area were the French, who built Fort Presque Isle on the city’s site in 1753. The French abandoned the fort to the English, who lost it in 1763 at the start of Pontiac’s Rebellion. When General “Mad” Anthony Wayne induced the native tribes to make peace in 1794, the area was opened to settlement. The city was laid out in 1795 and became a port engaged principally in the salt trade. The city’s history through 19th century was dominated by harbor activity. In 1813, in what is often referred to as Erie’s proudest historical moment, Commodore Oliver Perry defeated the British in the Battle of Lake Erie. Most of Commodore Perry’s ships were built in Erie.

HELLO DINING! Finding an Erie restaurant that satisfies even the finickiest of diners is easy. Erie and its surrounding

area offers plenty of culinary preferences including Middle Eastern, Asian, Thai, French, Italian, Mexican, Japanese, Chinese, fusion-inspired, vegetarian, gluten-free, barbecue, organic and traditional American classics. Several products got their start right here in our own backyard. Smith’s hot dogs, pepperoni balls, ox roast, Pulakos chocolate-covered strawberries and Romolos sponge candy to name a few. Toast your meal with thirst-quenching ales distilled from local micro brewers or bright savory wines from over 24 wineries across Lake Erie Wine Country. Factory tours and tastings are offered year-round at most facilities. Local growers supply the area with plenty of farm fresh produce from roadside stands and farmers markets throughout Erie County.
