Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital operates as a tertiary care referral hospital with specialization in reconstructive and restorative medicine and is a leading plastic surgery centre.

Operated by Horizon Health Network, formerly by the River Valley Health Authority, the Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital opened in 1976, replacing the Victoria Public Hospital. It is named in honour of George Everett Chalmers and was modelled after the McMaster University Medical Centre in Hamilton, Ontario.[1]

In 2006 the Stan Cassidy Centre for Rehabilitation was relocated to a newly constructed building on the Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital campus, immediately south of, and connected to, the primary hospital building.

The Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital is also a teaching hospital for the Faculty of Medicine at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
