Morgantown, W.Va.-based WVU Medicine has begun developing an open-heart surgery program at Berkeley Medical Center in Martinsburg, W.Va.

The program is part of a more than $400 million capital investment to expand specialty care in West Virginia’s eastern panhandle, according to an Oct. 16 news release from the health system.

The first open-heart procedures at Berkeley are expected to begin in late 2026.

At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
