Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital
Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt is one of the nation’s leading children’s hospitals. They treat and help prevent all health issues ranging from colds and broken bones to heart disease and cancer. The world-class facilities at Children’s Hospital are a testament to the community’s dedication to the health of children. Constructed in 2004, expanded in 2012, and currently undergoing another major addition, the 267-bed hospital is a child-friendly place built on the science of healing. Many of the doctors and surgeons are nationally recognized researchers who are finding new ways to cure and prevent childhood diseases. Their work preventing and treating premature birth, cancer, heart disease, spina bifida, and many other conditions is an investment in the future.
