I need a COVID test.
Patients needing a COVID test must call our office at (610) 363-0100.
If you are having symptoms, you will need to have an appointment with a provider before getting a test. If you are asymptomatic, you'll be able to schedule either a PCR test, or a rapid antigen test (first choice). There is a cost of $35 for all patients (unless you have Medicare or Aetna insurances, which are currently paying for the test).

Visiting Our Offices:
Protocols as of March 2022
In-office visits and consultations: We're currently seeing patients in the office for sick and well visits, physicals, follow-ups, consults, and more. All staff are fully vaccinated. In common areas masking is required by patients and staff; if provider and patient are both comfortable, masks can be removed once in an exam room.
Telemedicine appointments: Patients are encouraged to see us in person for their medical care, and telemedicine should be used only in specific cases. Options for video-conferencing with a provider can be discussed; please contact us for details. All patients should also contact their insurance company to discuss coverage of remote appointments, which varies by insurance provider.
We're answering phones, emails and portal messages – contact us if you have any questions!

If you need help with your groceries or meds, please email Claree@christinemeyermd.com or call (610) 363-0100 x305.
We have received dozens of offers from patients willing to donate money to this effort. We absolutely cannot directly accept monetary donations, but if you are able, please check in on your neighbors who might not have access or means.
