Loma Linda University Medical Center (LLUMC) is an academic hospital in California's Inland Empire region. Serving the community for over 100 years, this faith-based Level 1 trauma center has over one million patient visits yearly, 936 faculty physicians and 1,077 licensed beds. Health care professionals offer skilled, award-winning care throughout the community with several satellite hospitals and clinics in Riverside and San Bernardino County.

The main tower of the center was built in 1967 and is 11 stories high. Currently, the hospital is building two new hospital towers. It is one of the tallest buildings in the Inland Empire. Because of its height and white coloration, it is possible to view the main hospital building from various locations around the San Bernardino valley and mountains.

Loma Linda University Medical Center made international news on October 26, 1984, when Dr. Leonard L. Bailey transplanted a baboon heart into Baby Fae, an infant born with a severe heart defect known as hypoplastic left heart syndrome. Baby Fae died a few weeks later; however, this effort led to the successful infant heart transplant program, with transplantation of human-to-human infant transplants. LLUMC is home to the Venom E.R., which specializes in snake bites. In 2014, LLUMC was ranked the 14th best hospital in California by the U.S. News & World Report.
