Overlake Hospital Medical Center
Group Health Cooperative
Bellevue is extremely well positioned when it comes to health care. There are two major medical facilities in the Bellevue area, and just ten miles away, in Seattle, are some of the world's most prestigious medical and research institutions.
Chief among Bellevue's finest is Overlake Hospital. Eastside residents, in an independent health care study conducted in 1998 by the National Research Corporation (NRC), rated Overlake Hospital Medical Center as the top Puget sound area hospital in 13 health care categories, including "Most Preferred Hospital Overall." A team of more than 1,800 employees and 650 physicians work together to provide the finest in medical and surgical services and programs, from open heart surgery to a senior care and fitness program that serves as a model for hospitals across the country.
In nearby Redmond, the Group Health Cooperative serves the Eastside community with a 175 bed hospital and Kirkland's 149-bed Evergreen Hospital Medical Center also offers Bellevue quick access to emergency care, surgery, in-and outpatient services, hospice programs and health education
The close proximity of the University of Washington Medical School, Seattle's Harborview Medical center (which operates one of the top-rated trauma facilities in the nation) Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center and a growing number bio-medical research firms assures area residents of the very latest in medical technology and expertise.
