History
Since its founding in 1958 as a small, neighborhood provider of personalized medical care, Valley Presbyterian Hospital (VPH) has grown to become the largest independent, non-sectarian, nonprofit hospital in the region. As the needs of the community have changed, we have never wavered on our promise to provide excellence in patient care. Through the generosity of financial donations and community support, we are able to continue to improve the health of the San Fernando Valley. Our acute-care facilities provide a full range of services to a large and diverse patient population. Each year, our hospital serves more than 100,000 patients, including more than 60,000 patients in the Emergency Department. Many patients who visit the Emergency Department lack financial resources and depend on the emergency room as their primary access point for health care services.
