Fairmont Medical Center, a campus of J.W. Ruby Memorial Hospital, provides high-quality emergency and inpatient care for the residents of Marion County and the surrounding area.
After the hospital’s former owner closed the Fairmont Regional Medical Center in March 2020, WVU Medicine opened a new campus of J.W. Ruby Memorial Hospital at the Locust Avenue location, renaming it Fairmont Medical Center in June 2020. Fairmont Medical Center has successfully served the community as a full-service hospital for the five years since opening.
Emergency and inpatient services at Fairmont Medical Center complement the care already provided at the WVU Medicine Fairmont Gateway Clinic and WVU Medicine West Fairmont Clinic.
