The History of Golisano Children's Hospital at Strong
The 1930s and 1940s
During the 1930s and 40s, the faculty of the Department of Pediatrics began to grow to meet the ever-rising demand for care of Rochester's children. Dr. Clausen appointed five house staff: Dr. Bradford as Chief Resident, as well as two assistant residents and two interns. Because of the small number of full-time staff, it became necessary to incorporate the part-time assistance of area pediatricians, thus forging the critical relationship and interdependence of community pediatrician and hospital.
