Daniel Kushner DO

  • Family Medicine Resident

I was born in Cincinnati but was raised just north of Pittsburgh in Cranberry Township! I attended Penn State University for my undergraduate where I majored in Economics! After graduating in 2020, I did a year of service with the National Health Corps. During this gap year, I served as the patient navigator at the UPMC St. Margaret Lawrenceville Family Health Center! Next, I attended medical school at the Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine in Erie. 

I chose St. Margaret's because they have a long tradition of training excellent family physicians and I felt that it would be the perfect place for me to learn and work. My interests in family medicine include outpatient, palliative, and lifestyle medicine. I am so excited to be back in the 'Burgh and back at St. Margaret's for residency. 

On a day off you can find me at Costco, taking my dog on walks, cheering on the Pittsburgh Steelers and Penn State Nittany Lions, and spending time with my family and friends!
