History
The hospital opened to patients on October 3, 1976, as Durham County General Hospital, replacing the smaller Lincoln and Watts Hospitals, which closed on the same date.[2][3]
In 1998, an agreement with Duke University Health System was signed and the two officially began a 20-year partnership.
On July 1, 2013, Durham Regional Hospital was renamed Duke Regional Hospital as part of a marketing plan to rebrand its image.[4]
