For more than a half a century, MedStar Washington Hospital Center has set the highest standard for health care—and reached and surpassed it year after year.
MedStar Washington Hospital Center is a not-for-profit, 926-bed academic medical center in the center of the nation's capital—and every day, hundreds of people in the region depend on us for their care. In 2013 alone, the hospital opened its door for nearly 500,000 inpatient and outpatient visits by residents from throughout the Mid-Atlantic.
We are the busiest and largest hospital in Washington, D.C. and the surrounding area—and serve as referral center and the central hub for the region's most advanced acute medical care.
But we are much more. Our primary and secondary health services help our community's residents get and stay healthy, and help to improve patients' quality of life by managing chronic illness.
Our inpatient services, education and research programs, outpatient care and community outreach initiatives are all aimed at meeting today's health care needs—and at leading the way to meet the future health needs of the nation.
