Company History
Riverside, which began serving the Peninsula in 1916, is located on a beautiful 56- acre tract in central Newport News. The hospital moved to this site in 1963 and has evolved into the primary center for medical care and education for the area's 400,000 citizens.
Over the years, Riverside has led the way in technology and diagnostics and in assembling a dedicated, talented and caring staff. The regional role matured. And in 1988, the name was changed from Riverside Hospital to Riverside Regional Medical Center.
Today, 325 outstanding physicians in 33 specialties practice at Riverside Regional Medical Center. Riverside's Oncology Intensive Care Unit is the only facility on the Peninsula to provide Stem Cell and Autologous Bone Marrow Transplants.
