History
A History of Caring
Thorek Memorial Hospital is a 218bed notforprofit acute care facility We have been providing quality progressive health care to Chicagoans since 1911 when Dr Max Thorek founded the American Hospital the forerunner to Thorek Memorial
Dr Thorek and his wife Fannie opened a 25bed hospital primarily to serve members of the performing arts community Some of our early patients included Mae West the Marx Brothers Harry Houdini and Buffalo Bill Cody just to name a few
Throughout the years their son Dr Phillip Thorek continued their strong tradition of community health care Dr Phil as he was affectionately known was Emeritus Clinical Professor at the University of Illinois College of Medicine an author of five surgical textbooks a producer of more than 80 surgical films and a worldrenown lecturer and speaker Under Dr Phils direction the hospital aggressively expanded its physical plant increased the number and types of services offered and added stateoftheart technology and equipment to better diagnose and treat our patients Even with his passing in 1998 at age 92 one thing remains constant the founding philosophy of providing quota human atmosphere where the patient is a person rather than a casequot
The Thorek family vision of care is being continued today With the recent addition of a 40000 square foot professional building a cardiac catheterization and special procedures laboratory and cancer center the hospital is able to offer the unique characteristics and personal attention of a community hospital while providing a wide range of stateoftheart medical surgical diagnostic and therapeutic services
