St. Mary Conducting Drive-Up Coronavirus Testing

LANGHORNE, PA — St. Mary Medical Center in Langhorne is now conducting drive-up coronavirus testing.

Hospital spokeswoman Ann D'Antonio confirmed Thursday that the hospital, at 1201 Langhorne-Newtown Rd., has begun offering the mobile testing for patients of the hospital's medical staff and doctors affiliated with the hospital.

The testing for the new coronavirus, or COVID-19, is not open to the general public, she said.

"At this time, only those St. Mary Medical Center patients who have been scheduled an appointment and have a prescription may receive a screening through the St. Mary Medical Center mobile screening site," D'Antonio said.

The testing site is the first of its kind in Lower Bucks County. On Tuesday, a similar drive-up test site was started at Doylestown Hospital in Doylestown.
