Our Story in Culpeper 

Culpeper Medical Center has proudly served the area since its doors opened in 1960. Originally Culpeper Hospital, the grounds have grown and advanced over decades to meet increasing demand for inpatient and outpatient services in the Rappahannock-Rapidan area. In 2021, Culpeper Medical Center began the journey to become a fully integrated part of the UVA Health system and has continued investing in leading-edge technology, recruiting highly skilled subspecialty providers, expanding primary care and pediatric services, and strengthening connections with the community. We have been awarded nationally for pulmonary programs, heart and vascular care, and maternity care.
