Carolinas Medical Center - University is the largest hospital in University City, North Mecklenburg and Southwest Cabarrus. Every day our physician specialists practice the kind of medicine that saves and enhances lives.

CMC-University has been a healthcare leader in the community for 20 years and our staff of physicians and specialists are committed to advanced care for our patients. Caring for patients needing orthopedic surgery such as a knee replacement, the latest cancer treatments, or for patients undergoing a surgical procedure, our team's experience and compassion are evident in the real life cases treated everyday at CMC-University.

In addition to the health of our area's families, CMC-University focuses on the care of the community. We actively work to promote a healthy lifestyle by contributing to local agencies and schools and providing a range of outreach programs and health seminars. Carolinas Medical Center-University and the YMCA of Greater Charlotte are building a healthy community through CMC Health Centers located inside the University City and Lake Norman YMCAs. This collaborative effort provides preventive healthcare, health education and wellness programs to the community.

And you'll be reassured to know that CMC-University also offers special perinatal and neonatal services for high-risk pregnancies and deliveries. Our obstetrics staff is supported by neonatology specialists and our Level III Neonatal Nursery is close by for newborns needing extra care. This type of specialized care is why more than 2,000 families choose our Maternity Center each year. After all, it's a place of new beginnings.
