Wheeling Hospital

Wheeling Hospital A Tradition of Excellence. A Legacy of Caring. Wheeling Hospital, founded in 1850, has served patients longer than any other hospital in West Virginia.

Today, it is a 223-bed acute care facility with a medical staff of nearly 300 primary care and specialty physicians. Now known as WVU Medicine Wheeling Hospital, it provides a wide array of primary and tertiary care services. In addition to the hospital, the complex includes the Continuous Care Center and the Howard Long Wellness Center. Connected to the hospital are four medical office buildings. In addition, Tower 5 features a state-of-the-art Emergency/Trauma Center, Center for Pediatrics, Intensive Care Units, physician offices and private patient rooms. In downtown Wheeling, the Wheeling Clinic, a division of the hospital, houses additional physician offices and Visiting Nurses Services. Also downtown is the Urgent Care clinic in the Stone Center on Market Plaza. Along with a wide range of services, Wheeling Hospital also boasts a diverse medical staff which includes the specialties of: audiology, podiatry, urology, pulmonology, gastroenterology, cardiology, hematology, oncology, gynecology, pain management, nephrology, family medicine, and general primary care services. Health centers affiliated with Wheeling Hospital include: Bellaire, Colerain, Martins Ferry, Powhatan, Scio, Shadyside, and St. Clairsville. Physicians also see patients at Wellsburg Clinic, St. Clairsville Plaza and at East Cove Avenue in Elm Grove. The hospital’s newest addition is the Ambulatory Surgery Center in Bridgeport, OH. The ASC offers a more convenient experience for patients receiving outpatient procedures such as gastroenterology, plastic surgery, cataract surgery, podiatry, gynecologic surgery, orthopedic surgery and other general surgeries. Wheeling Hospital previously was owned by the Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston. On March 31, 2021, it became a full member of the West Virginia University Health System (WVUHS) under a Letter of Intent between the Diocese and the West Virginia University Health System (WVUHS). The agreement ensures Wheeling Hospital will maintain its Catholic identity. As a full member of the health system, Wheeling Hospital is part of a broad, integrated network of doctors, hospitals, clinics, and specialized institutes across West Virginia, Southwestern Pennsylvania, Western Maryland, and Ohio. Today, the WVU Health System, which operates under the brand “WVU Medicine,” has more than 20,000 employees; 2,815 providers; 22 member, managed, and affiliate hospitals; and more than 2.5 million patient visits annually.

We’re proud to celebrate our most recent cohort of Nurse Residency Program grads - a program designed to support new nurses as they transition into practice and grow into confident, compassionate caregivers.
Through focused mentorship, hands-on experience, and continued learning, our nurse residency graduates strengthen our care teams and enhance the experience of the patients and families we serve. Their commitment to professional growth helps ensure high-quality, patient-centered care across our hospital.
We are grateful for our residency graduates and deeply appreciative of all our nurses, whose skill, dedication, and heart make a difference every single day.

January is cervical cancer awareness month. Remember, early detection saves lives!

January is cervical cancer awareness month 💙

Cervical cancer is largely preventable, yet it still affects thousands of people each year. Routine screenings like Pap tests and HPV tests can find changes early – often before cancer develops. The HPV vaccine also plays a key role in prevention.

This month, we’re raising awareness about the importance of screening, vaccination, and early detection to help protect the health of our communities.
