About Us

WVU Medicine Jefferson Medical Center is, first and foremost, the community’s hospital. For generations, families in the Eastern Panhandle have trusted us to deliver compassionate, expert care close to home. That tradition continues today, strengthened by our connection to WVU Medicine and our shared commitment to bringing advanced medicine to the people who matter most—our neighbors.

Together with WVU Medicine Berkeley Medical Center and our network of outpatient primary and specialty care clinics, we form WVU Hospitals East, a not-for-profit system dedicated to making world-class care accessible in our region. This partnership allows us to combine the personal touch of a community hospital with the resources, innovation, and expertise of West Virginia’s leading academic medical system.

Every expansion, every new service, and every physician we recruit is guided by the needs of our community. Whether it is through new specialties, modernized facilities, or expanded wellness services, our goal is to ensure that families across Jefferson County and the Eastern Panhandle never need to look far for the care they deserve.

Jefferson Medical Center is proud to be your hospital—rooted in our community, growing for the future, and dedicated to providing exceptional care, close to home.

As a not-for-profit system, we are deeply invested in the communities we serve, providing care that meets local needs while supporting initiatives that promote overall health and well-being.

Since 2005, we have worked alongside WVU Medicine Berkeley Medical Center and our network of outpatient clinics to expand access, strengthen services, and bring advanced care closer to home. Every new service, program, or facility is guided by a simple principle: the health of our neighbors comes first.
