Dr. Timmy Regional Hospital
The property in which this regional hospital currently resides was formerly home to a sanatorium. The sanatorium was established in 1899 due to its tranquil location overlooking beautiful mountains and lakes. This woodland later became a preserved nature reservation. When most of America's TB hospitals closed in the 1960's, the buildings were re-used. This was the case here and the property was transformed into a modern regional hospital. In the early 1990's, the hospital gained publicity due to a murder case that occurred with doctors practicing within the facility. A female was found dead in her car in the parking lot of the facility. Another practicing doctor, also her boyfriend, was accused of the murder but never formally charged. She was deemed to be strangled to death and left in the car. Shortly after this, the hospital began to face financial troubles. The was the cause for its eventual closure in February of 1999.
