WellSpan Health opened its newest Pulmonary and Sleep Medicine office in last week– the -based health system’s second in County.

The new office on the second floor of WellSpan’s Reading Road Health Center at 446 N. Reading Road, Ephrata, replaces two smaller ones at 3440B Rothsville Road, Ephrata, and at 227 Granite Run Drive, Lancaster.

WellSpan’s Pulmonary and Sleep Medicine office at 435 S. Kinzer Road in New Holland will remain open.

WellSpan’s Pulmonary and Sleep Medicine offices treat patients with various lung and sleep disorders, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, lung cancer, fibrosis, sleep apnea and insomnia.

The health system’s newest addition to its Reading Road Health Center has 16 exam rooms and employs 30.

“We are excited to serve our patients at our spacious new office,” said Dr. Scott Silverstein, pulmonologist with the practice. “We have a large waiting room, with appropriate social distancing, as well as clean and sanitized spaces throughout the office. We encourage our patients to contact us so we can continue to care for their pulmonary and sleep health.”

Because the practice is located at the WellSpan Reading Road Health Center, patients will have access to lab work and imaging services in the same building.

WellSpan is leasing the two smaller offices that previously held Pulmonary and Sleep Medicine practices
