The Ottawa Hospital, hospital in Ottawa, Canada
The Ottawa Hospital is a hospital network in Ottawa, Canada, with three campuses: Civic, General, and Riverside. Each campus covers different medical specialties, including oncology, cardiology, women's health, emergency care, and outpatient services.
The network was formed in 1998 by merging several former hospitals, including Ottawa General Hospital, Ottawa Civic Hospital, and Grace Hospital. Riverside Hospital, which had opened in 1967, joined at the same time.
The hospital works closely with the University of Ottawa, shaping medical education and training in the city. This partnership influences local healthcare and is visible in the many students and researchers who work there daily.
Each campus has several entrances and visitor parking, though ongoing construction can make it harder to find your way around. It is worth checking in advance which campus handles the care you are looking for.
The Riverside Campus was home to Canada's first kidney research center of its kind and still focuses on renal health today. The helipad at the Civic Campus is the main landing point for emergency medical flights from across the region.
