WVU Medicine - United Hospital Center

When you need care, you can count on United Hospital Center, as it is your first step to recovery. With decades of experience and state-of-the-art technology, UHC provides services to fit every patient’s need. 

United Hospital Center is the result of a merger between St. Mary’s and Union Protestant hospitals in 1970. This bold move provides North Central West Virginia with a regional community hospital that offers a vast array of services.

The new UHC opened in 2010 and is located along Interstate 79 in Bridgeport. The 736,403-square-foot structure rises eight stories. It is designed around the environment with the patient, family, staff, and community in mind – which includes enhanced patient privacy, a high level of technology integration, and improved access to care.

The acute care facility has 312 private inpatient rooms with a medical staff that consist of more than 324 physicians and extenders. UHC employs more than 2,500 employees and is a member of WVU Medicine
