History
In the 1950s, St. Paul's Hospital in Livermore proved too small for the communities of Livermore and Pleasanton. People grew weary of traveling to Oakland for health care, so local residents united and raised enough money, along with federal grants, to build Valley Memorial Hospital on land donated by Kaiser Paving Company in Livermore. Valley Memorial opened its doors in September 1961 with 46 beds and a medical staff of 23. As the Tri-Valley community grew, so did ValleyCare Health System, and in 1991 ValleyCare Medical Center in Pleasanton opened. Today, ValleyCare has a total of 242 beds and a medical staff of over 300, offering you a wide array of inpatient and outpatient services that are at a world-class level. Our facilities have expanded to include new and remodeled buildings in Pleasanton, Dublin, and Livermore. Over the years, ValleyCare has kept pace with state-of-the-art equipment and facilities adding new programs and services to meet your needs.
