How to choose hospitals in Allentown
- Check that the provider is licensed. You can look up any Pennsylvania medical license on the Department of State's PALS website.

- Ask about wait times for new patients, telehealth visits and after-hours coverage.
- Read recent patient reviews, but focus on patterns (communication, billing, wait times) rather than one-off complaints.
