    Fauquier Hospital
    Warrenton, Virginia

    Located in Warrenton, Virginia, about forty miles southwest of Washington, DC, Fauquier Hospital is a 120-bed Acute Care Hospital serving a primarily rural community. Established in 1956 by a group of community volunteers, Fauquier Hospital is a not-for-profit Community Hospital fully accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Health Care Organizations (JCAHO). It remains independently operated, and governed by a volunteer board of trustees.

    Fauquier Hospital provides a full array of state-of-the-art diagnostic and treatment capabilities to the people of Fauquier County, as well as the surrounding counties of Culpeper, Prince William and Rappahannock. Modern Patient Care Areas include two Medical-Surgical Nursing Wings, an Intensive Care Unit, Maternity Wing, plus Emergency, Outpatient, Physical Medicine, and Radiology Departments.

    As the only hospital in the county, Fauquier Hospital is the central hub of medical care in the area. The present facility was built in 1957 and designed by Ballou Justice Upton Architects who also designed newer expansion projects.

    Fauquier Hospital provides all services appropriate to the community hospital setting, including a wide spectrum of Inpatient and Outpatient Diagnostic and Treatment Services. The hospital participates with many different Insurance and Managed Care Plans, as well as providing care to those with no health insurance.

    An active staff of 80 Physicians and an additional 40 Consulting Doctors provide Medical Care at the hospital, 90 percent of whom are Board Certified in their particular areas of expertise. A third of Fauquier Hospital’s Physicians practice Primary Care Medicine, serving in specialties such as Family Practice, Pediatrics and Internal Medicine. The rest are specialists ranging from Cardiologists to Otolaryngologists. Almost every medical specialty is represented among Fauquier Hospital’s Doctors.

    With 600 Employees, Fauquier Hospital is the largest Private Employer in Fauquier County.
