Marshall University Medical Center

In June, 1998, the Marshall University Medical Center opened, bringing all its physicians, medical students and other staff members from facilities located across the region together under one roof. The Medical Center adjoins Cabell Huntington Hospital's campus through a four-story atrium. Patients have access to Marshall University's wealth of qualified medical specialists and students, as well as all the services CHH has to offer, all conveniently located in one facility.
