A historic city and its own hub of care
Fredericksburg sits on the Rappahannock River between Washington and Richmond, with a 40-block historic district, the University of Mary Washington, and Civil War battlefields preserved in Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania National Military Park. It is also the home of Mary Washington Hospital, the region’s main hospital. Many residents commute north by I-95, or on the VRE and Amtrak.

When video is enough
- Sinus infections, urinary symptoms and many rashes
- Blood pressure, cholesterol, thyroid and diabetes follow-ups
- Medication refills and reviews
- Lab results explained in plain English
- Weight, sleep and stress
- Menopause and hormone health
When it is not
Exams, injections, wound care and treatments such as IV therapy need a visit to Woodbridge, about 32 miles up I-95 to exit 160. If you commute north, an appointment can fit on the way. If a problem needs a quick local look, such as an X-ray or stitches, we will tell you and help you choose the closest option.
