History

Childrens traces its origins to the summer of 1913 when a group of nurses led by public health nurse May Forster Smith organized an openair clinic on the lawn of the old Parkland Hospital The nurses recognized that children received better care when it was focused only on them

The clinic grew into the Bradford Hospital for Babies which merged with Childrens Hospital of Texas and Richmond Freeman Memorial Clinic in 1948 to form Childrens Medical Center of Dallas

In 2008 we opened our Legacy campus in Plano to serve a greater number of patients in the area
