Explore Lynchburg, VA

Lynchburg, VA anchors a good-sized central Virginia region, an independent city set on the James River in the foothills of the Blue Ridge. Imaging centers and PT clinics cluster along the US-29 and US-460 corridors and the Lynchburg Expressway that ties them together. Known as the Hill City for its seven hills, Lynchburg is a college town, home to Liberty University and several others. No interstate reaches the city, though US-29 runs north toward Charlottesville and US-460 west toward Roanoke. The terrain is hilly, so commutes follow the ridgelines more than the map suggests. Travelers use the regional airport or drive to Roanoke for more flights and the bigger hospitals.
