CELEBRATING 100 YEARS OF WOMEN’S HEALTH
Since we began in 1911, Women's College Hospital has led a world of breakthroughs in women's health. Today, we continue our legacy with cutting-edge research and programs that address the diseases and conditions that affect women most: breast and ovarian cancer, diabetes, skin diseases, osteoporosis and osteoarthritis, heart disease, domestic violence, sexual health, depression and trauma. All without in-patient hospitalization.
In 2011, we celebrated a century of innovation, with programs, events and exhibits highlighting our brilliant past, while looking forward to our even brighter future focused on the health of women.
To see how we celebrated our 100th anniversary, click on the events below.
