Policlinico San Matteo

Fondazione IRCCS Policlinico “San Matteo” is a public teaching & research hospital with national and international prominence. San Matteo Hospital is one of the most important academic medical center in Europe, offering high-specialty inpatient and treatment services (with multiple areas of excellence) and a strong vocation for the integration of scientific research, care and teaching.

The I.R.C.C.S. Policlinico San Matte combines all three foundational aspects of healthcare: CARE, affirming its role as a referral hospital (HUB) and center of the organizational time-dependent and pathology NETWORKS; RESEARCH, as an Institute of Hospitalization and Treatment with Scientific Character and playing a leading national and international role in biomedical research; basic and specialized UNIVERSITY EDUCATION, as a teaching pole of the University of Pavia, with the seat of the Bachelor of Medicine and Surgery and of the three-year and master’s degree courses of the health professions.

Recognized as an Institute for Hospitalization and Treatment with Scientific Character (IRCCS) in 1982, San Matteo has always been reaffirmed in that role. The latest confirmation is January 21, 2021in the mutually complementary and integrated disciplines of “transplantology: diseases curable by organ, tissue and cell transplantation” and “internist diseases of broad biomedical and technological complexity.”
