Family is made up mostly of doctors and they own their own business named ELQ.

The Quartermaine family is a very wealthy and prestigious fictional family on the ABC soap opera, General Hospital. The Quartermaines have been a staple on General Hospital since their introduction in the late 1970s.

The Quartermaines, due to their dysfunctional tendencies, are comically notorious for their annual attempts to have a traditional Thanksgiving dinner, only, for one reason or other (usually a family fight), to have it end up ruined and so they always end up ordering take out pizza for their dinner.

After so many years of aborted attempts to have a turkey, only to have it ruined in one form or other, the family now just go ahead and give their cook, Cook (full name Virginia Cook) the day off and order pizza outright. This, and their constant squabbling, have made the Quartermaines the show's much needed comedy relief.

However, at Christmas time, the family is known for their annual Christmas reading at the Hospital, which is more successful than their annual Thanksgiving dinner debacles.

The family tends to argue with one another even more so after the deaths of loved ones. Their funerals and memorial services end up becoming grounds for more arguing.

The Quartermaines saw a diminishing lack of screentime from 2006-2010, but newly appointed headwriter Garin Wolf brought them back to the frontburner during the summer of 2011, and intends on keeping them there.
