The History of Golisano Children's Hospital at Strong
The 1990s
The goals of the original Department of Pediatrics - community
care and rigorous research - continued to be met with excellence.
The growth that began in the 1980s continued, and the services
and functions of the Department of Pediatrics and the Children's
Hospital expanded exponentially.
1993
Dr. Elizabeth R. McAnarney (Syracuse)
became the sixth Chair of the Department of Pediatrics. Prior
to her appointment, she directed
the
Department's
Division of Adolescent Medicine for twenty years and established
patient care and research programs directed to adolescent
pregnancies and their outcomes.
The Pediatric Service at Strong Memorial Hospital became
Strong
Children's
Hospital - a children's hospital within a hospital
and Rochester's premier hospital for the care of children.
