Welcome to Carilion.
Whether you are a physician looking for a health system that gives you better ways to heal, a patient trying to find a a place that is developing better ways to care, or a member of our community who wants better ways to share time and compassion with neighbors in need, you've come to the right place.
For more than 100 years, Carilion has been finding better ways. Today, we are building a healthier future by seeking out the latest innovations, recruiting the brightest physicians and developing an integrated healthcare system that puts patients first. We are training the next generation of physicians and healthcare workers in a setting that gives them access to the most advanced treatments and technologies. Our residency programs consistently produce physicians who go on to become leaders in their specialty.
Our network of hospitals in Virginia is anchored by Carilion Roanoke Memorial Hospital, which is currently undergoing a $110 million expansion that will include a new children's hospital, an advanced heart treatment center and entire floors designed just for women. Throughout our system, we are delivering access to the most advanced healthcare services. Our 67 physician practices stretch from far southwest Virginia through the Shenandoah Valley.
We are not just another hospital system. In addition to finding better ways to care for patients, we are focusing on wellness through our three athletic clubs. We are giving physicians better options for lab service through Carilion Labs, our rapidly growing outreach lab company. Carilion is also heavily involved in recruiting innovative companies in the biotech sector to this area of Virginia.
Suffice it to say, if there's a better way to heal, we'll find it.
