Reaching Out

Wilkes-Barre General Hospital Wyoming Valley Pediatric Partnership

A new outreach partnership has been developed between Penn State Children's Hospital and Wyoming Valley Health Care System to implement a regional nexus of advanced pediatric services for the Luzerne and Lackawanna county region. Penn State specialists will offer services at 540 Pierce Street in Kingston, a short remove from Wyoming Valley's Wilkes-Barre General Hospital. The new Partnership will enhance regional pediatric offering in a variety of areas shown below. In addition to the regular rotation of Children's Hospital specialists seeing patients at this clinic, telemedicine technology will be implemented to enhance service coverage, quality and efficiency.

Wilkes-Barre General Hospital, the acute care component of the Wyoming Valley Health Care System, is northeastern Pennsylvania's largest community hospital, with a medical staff of over 400 physicians, representing nearly 50 medical and surgical specialties. For more than 130 years, Wilkes-Barre General has provided its patients with access to the most progressive medical techniques and technologies available in Northeastern Pennsylvania. The new partnership between Wyoming Valley Health Care System and Penn State Children's Hospital continues the hospital's tradition of excellence in care by enhancing pediatric offerings and providing patients with easy access to the expertise of Penn State specialists.
