The History of Saint Mary’s Regional Medical Center

Established by Dr. R.L. Smith in 1925, Saint Mary’s Regional Medical Center has served the Arkansas River Valley for more than 90 years. The hospital is a licensed, 170-bed acute-care facility with nearly 100 physicians on active medical staff. As the hub of Saint Mary’s Regional Health System, it continues to grow, expand, and add new services to meet the needs of the growing communities we serve.
