St. Mary's General Hospital is a 197-bed adult acute-care facility in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada serving Waterloo Region and surrounding area.

[1] It is the site of the Regional Cardiac Care Centre which opened in 2003, while the emergency department was extensively renovated in 2004.

The church was founded in 1856 to provide spiritual services to Roman Catholic families in the area who were mainly German immigrants.

The Sisters of St. Joseph of Hamilton committed $350,000 to helping the construction and opening of the hospital and the Catholic congregations of Kitchener and Waterloo had donated $100,000.

They have twice earned a top score in the report and are one of the three centres in Canada performing better than the national average.

The hope with the expansion is that the hospital can perform ablation procedures which study the rhythm of the heart.

[5] In October 2018, Dr. Andrew Falconer was named president of St. Mary's and St. Joseph’s Health System.

Previously, Dr. Falconer was a vice president and chief of staff at Queensway Carleton Hospital in Ottawa after replacing Don Shilton, who had retired in June 2018.

Around $5 million in donations from donors is expected to be given to the foundation every year as Government funding does not cover all of the costs for replacement and enhancement of equipment.
