Pocahontas Memorial Hospital is pleased to announce the upcoming ribbon cutting and grand opening of their new Joe and Peg Greenlee Rural Health Clinic. The event will take place on Wednesday, Aug. 9, beginning at 11 a.m. on the hospital campus, located at 150 Duncan Road, Buckeye, WV.
The Joe and Peg Greenlee Rural Health Clinic stands as a testament to the enduring commitment of Pocahontas Memorial Hospital to serve the healthcare needs of our rural community. The clinic, named in honor of esteemed philanthropists Joe and Peg Greenlee, has been made possible through their generous donation, alongside significant support from the local community and our valued partners.
During the ceremony, speakers will deliver brief remarks culminating in the official ribbon cutting. In addition, a very special announcement is expected to be made by one of our visiting dignitaries. The public is invited to tour the facility and enjoy refreshments following the ceremony.
The first hospital for Pocahontas County was completed in 1906 in the town of Marlinton, known as Marlinton Hospital and Infirmary. In 1926, citizens petitioned the county court to designate the hospital as a county facility and name it a Memorial Hospital in honor of the county men and women who served in World War I. The renamed Pocahontas Memorial Hospital has been, and continues to be, dedicated to delivering compassionate and high-quality care to both the residents and visitors of our county and surrounding areas.
