Shadyside Hospital has a family health practice associated with it.  They have
literally dozens of doctors; one of them is "your" doctor, but the nice thing
is that they are all your doctors in a pinch.  Thus, for example, when my wife
was in the process of miscarrying, all of the doctors knew about it (they discuss
ongoing cases) and when she finally miscarried, the doctor on duty, on a 
Saturday night, knew who she was and what was going on, even though they had 
never met.  The doctors are all fairly young, not having set up their own 
practices, but this generally means that they are especially thorough and
especially willing to explain what is going on.  

     If you have any questions, feel free to ask me; you can call them for an appointment.
I don't rmember their number, but if you ask at Shadyside Hospital they'll 
tell you what the number is.  Their prices aren't dirt cheap, but they aren't
as bad as anywhere else we checked when we came to town.
