[Highland Park] Have you found a cane/walking stick?
by Suzie s 03 Aug '10

03 Aug '10

I met a woman who walks in Highland Park near Jackson st who is missing her carved cane. It was left by mistake on the park road near Jackson st. It is about a straight stick, 3+ ft long, carved , dark color with other colors painted in spots. If you find it, leave it at the base of the Watch Children sign near Jackson. She will look for it there.

[Highland Park] Cross-Post: Doctor Recommendations - Looking for a great osteopath
by Julie Costa-Malcolm 02 Aug '10

02 Aug '10

Hi folks - Can anyone recommend a great osteopathic doctor (for the layman - a D.O., not an M.D.)? I'm looking for someone who isn't impossible to get an appointment with (the doctor recommended to me by my orthopedist can't see me until 9/22). And, ideally, someone who takes UPMC insurance. My old doctor is no longer practicing, and I'm kind of at sea trying to find a new one. I have chronic inflammatory/pain issues, and osteopathic manipulation has helped me a great deal in the past, so I'd especially like to hear about it if you know of a doctor who does manipulations. Thanks in advance! Julie
