Porter Medical Center, also known as Porter Hospital, is a 45-bed critical access hospital located in Middlebury, Vermont.[1] Founded by banker William Henry Porter to serve as a dual community hospital and infirmary to nearby Middlebury College, the hospital was dedicated on June 15, 1925.[2][3] In April 2017, the independent hospital joined the University of Vermont Health Network in an attempt to stabilize Porter's financial situation.[4]
