Under the leadership of Frank Bays Wolfe, M.D., and Henry Lee, M.D., and with an outpouring of support from the community, Carilion Franklin Memorial Hospital (CFMH) opened in 1952. Since its beginning, CFMH has existed to meet the needs of our growing community. In 1988, CFMH began a full affiliation with Carilion Health System (now Carilion Clinic) offering the opportunity to share resources, equipment, and expertise, enhancing the level of care CFMH provides locally. Our hospital features an expanded emergency department, a three-story medical office building, an outpatient surgical suite, enhanced physical therapy resources, and the convenience of an electronic medical record system, which connects our patients to Carilion Clinic’s network of physicians. While we enjoy the ability to offer technologically advanced services, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), 3-D ultrasound diagnostics, and cardiac nuclear medicine, we remain focused on providing the community with quality healthcare close to home, in a family friendly atmosphere.
