An expanded St. Mary Medical Center primary and urgent care facility that opened in the Levittown area was funded in part by $900,000 Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program grant approved by Democratic Gov. Tom Wolf last month.
The Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program grant of $900,000 will assist the Middletown-based healthcare organization fund the 12,500-square-foot facility at 4595 New Falls Road. The facility opened earlier this year next to Retro Fitness and features features public and patient support areas, waiting and reception room, as well as laboratory and staff support space.

“I went to bat six months ago for the hospital funding, and those efforts have been rewarded,” said State Rep. Tina Davis, who applauded the governor’s actions. “This state-of-the-art facility, operated by a professional and experienced organization with a sterling track record for care in Bucks County, helps fill a great gap in our community.”
State Rep. John Galloway also praised the project.
“The money helps maintain 32 full-time jobs with well-above-average salaries, 70 construction jobs, and improved health-care options for Lower Bucks County,” he said. “The leadership team at St. Mary, both past and present, deserve congratulations for pursuing and securing this critical financing for a vital community asset.”
