Our Bucks County hospitals are among the best in the Philadelphia region, and some are rated among the best in the country. These top-notch healthcare facilities are part of the BCHIP partnership, collaborating with us and other healthcare and advocacy groups in our area to continually improve access to the best health services for the residents of Bucks County.
Grand View Hospital was Bucks County’s very first hospital, founded in 1913 by local doctors who were concerned about the future of medical care in the Bucks and Montgomery County areas. Their foresight has grown into one of the premier health systems in our area, providing a full range of medical services.
For more than 20 years, Grand View has partnered with Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) to establish CHOP Newborn & Pediatric Care at Grand View Health, providing neonatal and pediatric expertise for newborns, complicated births, C-sections, and our Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).
Augmenting their advanced medical services further, Grand View Health recently joined forces with Penn Medicine as part of their Penn Cancer Network, Penn Medicine Orthopedic Surgery, and Penn Trauma Network.
Doylestown Hospital was founded in 1923. Since then, Doylestown Hospital has become a premier area hospital for its state-of-the-art services, and last year, on its 100-year birthday, Doylestown became a teaching hospital, welcoming its first class of family medicine resident physicians.
Doylestown offers the most advanced technology for early lung cancer screening and diagnosis in the region and is a destination hospital for the highest level of heart and vascular care, offering the newest advances in technology and surgical options. It is one of only two hospitals in PA and 33 in the nation to earn Primary Heart Attack Center certification.

St. Luke’s Hospital Upper Bucks is part of the St. Luke’s Health System, founded in 1872 in Bethlehem as community care for the Bethlehem Steel workers and other Bethlehem residents.

The Upper Bucks Campus offers spacious private rooms, critical care, surgical services, a large emergency room, a state-of-the-art Interventional Radiology Lab, a Women & Babies Pavilion, and a Cancer Center.
