Caring for Squirrel Hill patients

Squirrel Hill families make up one of the largest groups in our practice, and many book back-to-back appointments so parents and kids are seen in a single trip after school.

Dr. Elena Duarte, who sees most of our younger patients, lives in the neighborhood and often recommends the Frick Park trails to kids who earn a no-cavity sticker.

Cracked a molar on a Tuesday morning and was in the chair by 1 pm. Dr. Whitfield explained every option and had me out of pain the same afternoon.

My four-year-old asked when she can go back. Dr. Duarte let her hold the mirror and count her own teeth. That is a win.

Squirrel Hill patient questions

Yes. Tuesday and Thursday evenings until 7 pm are reserved first for school-age patients.

We book family blocks so two or three children can be seen back to back.

The 61 lines to Negley Avenue with a short 71 transfer is the most direct route.
