Uxbridge Cottage Hospital is a hospital in Uxbridge, Ontario, opened in 1958 with additions in 1967 and 1996. In April 1997, under the Common Sense Revolution, the hospital was amalgamated with Community Memorial Hospital Port Perry to form North Durham Health Services (NDHS). NDHS ceased to exist is 1998, when Uxbridge Cottage was placed under the jurisdiction of the Markham-Stouffville Hospital Corporation.
Though the hospital originally had 49 beds, the number has been reduced to 30. Uxbridge Cottage also provides a 24 hour emergency department, primary care and some secondary care services to the township of Uxbridge.
