Riverside Campus (formerly Riverside Hospital of Ottawa) is one of three main campuses of The Ottawa Hospital in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. The facility does not admit patients and has no emergency department, instead operating for out-patient treatment and procedures during the day, Monday through Friday.

The Riverside Hospital of Ottawa first opened in 1967.[1] It is located on Riverside Drive close to where the current General campus and the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario are located on Smyth Road.

On 1 April 1998, the hospital was amalgamated with the Civic Hospital and the General Hospital into The Ottawa Hospital.[2][3] The campus closed its emergency department and in-patient facilities in 2001, after which it became primarily a teaching hospital.[4]

The hospital is home to the Kidney Research Centre, a centre within the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute. The centre was established in 2000 and is the first place in Canada dedicated to kidney research.[5][6] In addition, the hospital is home to the Shirley E. Greenberg Women's Health Centre, opened in 2005.[7][8]

The hospital is served by Riverside station on OC Transpo's Transitway. The station is located underneath the campus's administration wing.[9]
