  Wilson Borough's Centennial Celebration

  Wilson Borough's Centennial Celebration What an honor it was for Patient First to be invited to join Wilson Borough’s Centennial Celebration. Wilson Borough, in Easton, PA, celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2020. The pandemic paused the celebration, but it returned October 14 – 16, 2021 in a big way, with food, rides, games, and live music and entertainment for the three days! We were able to join the Friday evening festivities. The community responded, and the weather couldn’t have been nicer for an outdoor Fall event. Organized by Borough Mayor Donald Barrett, Jr. and his team, the event was first-rate and very busy with attendance anticipated at more than 5,000 people from Easton and nearby communities. We enjoyed interacting with local folks, many who had been patients at our center near Meuser Park where this event was held. Organizers tell us they hope an annual Fall Festival will continue in future years … and if it does, you can count on seeing Patient First making a return appearance! It was a great evening.  See more event photos here

  Bethlehem’s Christkindlmarkt Going Strong Since 1993

  For the past four years, Patient First has participated in Bethlehem's Christkindlmarkt, and once again the event did not disappoint. It has become one of our favorite events of the year. This all-day event ran from morning until evening, and it gave us a full day of fun interacting with the huge crowd that came out to enjoy opening weekend. Christkindlmarkt has been a holiday hit in Bethlehem and the Lehigh Valley for years. In addition to hand-crafted gifts, the market has expanded over the years to include tastes and sounds of the season including German strudel, carols and even a visit from St. Nick. It now commands international attention for its holiday shopping experience and is noted among the top holiday markets in the world. We are thrilled to be included in the lineup of such an outstanding event! Throughout the day we enjoyed so many great conversations from folks who have visited our centers from all over Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Maryland. It was great to hear all of the positive comments from many people who went out of their way to show ...

  Historic Bethlehem Museums & Sites Hosts Annual Apple Days

  Each Fall for the past few years, Patient First has been excited to participate in Apple Days weekend activities hosted by Historic Bethlehem & Sites. The organization has an outstanding volunteer support base which makes things especially nice for us when we're on site, and great for all who attend the event. We had lots of visits to our tent over the weekend. It is always so nice to hear from people who share with us that they have chosen Patient First as their "go to" urgent care center in the Lehigh Valley. To keep things running smoothly, event organizers had shuttle busses running from off-site parking areas to accommodate all of the incoming visitors. This was such a nice feature and made access easy and convenient for all. Most participants who visited with us had great things to say about their experiences as patients in our Lehigh Valley centers -- Allentown, Bethlehem and Easton. We also met with visitors who had been seen by providers in a few of our South Jersey centers, as well. As usual, the event was "all things apple" with ...

  Take Me Out To The Ball Game - A Salute To Our Veterans

  Hats off to the Lehigh Valley's IronPigs ball club for organizing and hosting "Operation Send A Vet" on Opening Day, March 29, 2024. For the third consecutive year, Patient First was able to participate in this amazing "thank you" event by hosting 100 veterans and their families at the ball game. Several other local organizations joined in and collectively more than 1,300 veterans enjoyed a night out at the ball game. The frosting on the cake was an IronPigs win on this special night. We take pride in events and activities that help male and female veterans whether active duty or retired, in the Reserves or in the National Guard. It was heartwarming for us to meet so many vets during our evening at the ballpark. Even though Mother Nature wasn't very kind to us and delivered a bitterly cold evening, we all had a great time being on site again for this amazing event. What was extra special for us was meeting so many veterans personally. Many came by for a complimentary blood pressure check which we offered, or for some ...

  Inclement Weather Didn't Dampen Spirits At Bethlehem's 2023 Celtic Classic

  Mother Nature may not have been kind to the 2023 Celtic Classic event in Bethlehem, PA, but that surely didn't dampen our spirits, or the spirits of the world-class athletes who competed in the event, nor those of their families and friends, and attendees from all over the Lehigh Valley and beyond. Much to our delight, after all of the competitions concluded, several of the athletes came out into the crowd for food and beverage, and even a visit to our Patient First tent. We enjoyed great conversations with them, and even provided free blood pressure checks to those who were interested. It was such fun to meet and chat with these athletes in person. They were such fun, and so conversational with us! It was also great fun to see men, women and children of all ages in their kilts in keeping with the theme of the event and the Celtic cultural heritage. We enjoyed many compliments from people who had used the services of our Allentown, Bethlehem and Easton centers, as well as other centers as far away as New Jersey, ...

  The Great Allentown Fair Never Disappoints

  The Great Allentown Fair celebrated its 171st anniversary at the Allentown Fairgrounds this year, and Patient First was part of the fun as a sponsor. The Fairgrounds location is very close to our Allentown center, and it has a big draw from throughout the Lehigh Valley and beyond each year. We were delighted to hear so many positive comments about patient experiences in our Allentown, Bethlehem, Easton and Wyomissing centers, as well as from folks who visited from even farther away including Central Pennsylvania, South Jersey and Maryland. This event never disappoints. The Fair has been a Labor Day weekend tradition, and it always has a little something for everyone to enjoy, from livestock to amusement rides, concerts, games, contests, food and so much more. We love returning to this event each year as a sponsor, and we are especially happy that Mother Nature gave us perfect weather for our participation in this year's event as she did in 2021. We enjoyed a great churn of foot traffic all day from the early birds who came by during the morning hours ...
