Here's To Your Health

  • Physician and nursing care and routine physical exams
  • Laboratory testing and allergy injections
  • Emergency care
  • Referrals
  • Nutrition counseling and health education

Find us on the second floor, Duquesne Union. Please call 412.396.1650 for an appointment for all services except emergencies. Walk-ins are seen at the first opening in the schedule.
