Wenatchee Valley Hospital & Clinics Wenatchee Valley Clinic was founded in 1940 by Drs. Haug, Smith and Mares. Their vision was to establish a comprehensive medical practice using the Mayo Clinic model for residents of the Wenatchee Valley, and to one day house all medical specialties under one roof. In 2001, Wenatchee Valley Hospital opened on the main Wenatchee Valley Clinic campus, and this healthcare system became known as Wenatchee Valley Hospital & Clinics. Today, Wenatchee Valley Hospital & Clinic is a 20 bed facility providing acute medical and surgical services, and inpatient rehabilitation, and owns/operates numerous clinics offering multi-specialty and primary care in 11 communities of four counties in North Central Washington. By investing in technology and resources to stay on the leading edge of healthcare innovation, our communities get local access to leading medicine.
