Do you have medical insurance? If so, I'd call them and get a list of particpating providers in PA.

You can use the surgeon search feature here on LBT: go to the top of the page, click on Surgeons, then click on Surgeons Near You and enter your zip code.

As for whether the surgeons are accepting new patients or out-of-state patients, only the doctors' offices can accurately tell you that. When I had to change from a KY surgeon to a TN surgeon, I got a list of participating surgeons in my area and called their offices. Some wouldn't take me on, others would do it if I paid a patient transfer fee ($300-$400, non-refundable, not covered by insurance).
