At each of the affiliated companies, we are committed to providing health care services that are innovative, progressive, and focused on quality and the well-being of patients.



The hospital started in 1896 as a small cottage hospital on Pine Street in Exeter. Since then we have grown considerably and now have:

  • Approximately 2,300 employees
  • More than 400 affiliated physicians on staff
  • Approximately 31,000 annual Emergency Department visits
  • More than 5,200 annual admissions

Our scope of care allows us to offer comprehensive health care services in breast health, birthing and reproductive medicine, cardiovascular, occupational and employee health, oncology and orthopedics.



Exeter Hospital and its affiliates strive to enhance the wellbeing of the community with provision of culturally appropriate healthcare services. The organization proudly employs and serves the LGBTQ+ community with services dedicated to their healthcare needs.

 

Exeter Hospital provides comprehensive services for women and their families who live in the Seacoast of New Hampshire. Our goal is to develop and maintain relationships with you and your family, for life. We provide compassionate, leading-edge care from childhood to adolescence, to childbearing and raising families, to menopause and beyond



Breast Health Diagnostics & Procedures

With Hospital affiliated physicians and staff designated solely to the Center for Breast Health, we are committed to offering women a comprehensive and caring approach.

Mobile-Digital-Mammography

Exeter Hospital’s mobile digital mammography van is offering the most innovative and accurate technology for detecting breast abnormalities. Digital mammography provides huge benefits over traditional mammography, including shorter exam times, increased comfort, lower radiation, and fewer repeat mammograms due to its greater accuracy.

Women and Diabetes

It is very likely that you know or perhaps care for someone that has diabetes.

Women and Heart Disease

Cardiovascular disease is the number 1 killer of women, claiming the lives of nearly 500,000 American women each year. Unfortunately,  only 55% of women are aware of this fact, and less than half know what are considered healthy levels for cardiovascular risk factors like blood pressure and cholesterol.

Women and Osteoporosis



If your physician has told you that you have low bone mass or osteoporosis, you may be at an increased risk of fracture of your hip, spine or wrist.  Osteoporosis is most common in women after menopause, but is not solely a women’s health concern.
