Davis Regional Medical Center history

A Leader in the Medical Community On December 17, 1925, Davis Hospital moved from its South Center Street location to a handsome, new building on West End Avenue.

Unfortunately the largest and most significant addition of a diagnostic clinic was completed in September 1955, just three months after his death.

Despite all the additions to the hospital, the building was beginning to show it’s age, and by the 1980’s, plans were being made to move to a new building.

New Hospital in East Statesville Davis Hospital continued to operate from the West End location until 1984.

The county's first psychiatric unit. (1987)

I’m sure Doctor Davis would never have imagined a future where his noble creation would be used in the production of a movie.In November, 1989 director James Cummins rented the space as a filming location for his horror movie The Boneyard.
