Gov. Wolf Tours Bryn Mawr Hospital's Renovations

BRYN MAWR, PA – Gov. Tom Wolf made a visit to the area Thursday, Sept. 4. During his time on the Main Line, the governor got a tour of the newly-renovated space at Bryn Mawr Hospital, as well as the construction space for the upcoming Patient Pavilion.

The hospital recently wrapped up renovations in the Warden Lobby and is still undergoing a $200 million Patient Pavilion project that will modernize the hospital and help ensure patient comfort and convenience.

Wolf got a first hand look at the lobby, the pavilion project, and the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

“The tour of Bryn Mawr Hospital was an excellent opportunity to see the hospital and health system’s commitment to patient care and comfort; two very important aspects of health care that might be overlooked if not prioritized,” Wolf said.
