Lonesome Pine Hospital

Lonesome Pine Hospital, located in Big Stone Gap, VA, has been a member of Wellmont Health System since 2007.  The community hospital, which has been recognized as one of the nation’s Top 100 hospitals for performance improvement, provides a full spectrum of health care services.  The hospital continues to grow to better serve the healthcare needs of the community.  Lonesome Pine Hospital is a founding member of the Regional Stroke Network, a collaborative effort between several rural hospitals in Southwest Virginia to better care for patients suffering from a stroke.

The hospital is currently undergoing a $5 million expansion and improvement project that will allow the facility to take their level of service higher.  This project will increase the number of emergency department exam rooms to 21, replace semi-private emergency department exam rooms with private rooms, add new space for a same-day surgery center, PACU/recovery area and two endoscopy suites, install a new magnetic resonance imaging machine and renovate support areas, and install new windows throughout the entire facility designed to save energy and enhance patient privacy and comfort.

Digital mammography recently became operational at Lonesome Pine. The new equipment will assist in early detection of breast cancer. With digital mammography, the image of the breast is captured electronically and viewed on a computer screen, rather than being recorded on film like a traditional mammogram.
