St. Mary's Teaching Hospital - 450 S West St

This is New Jerusalem's only hospital. It has 165 beds and operates a 24-hour receiving room. The School of Medicine provides all the residents and interns; doctors with private practices in the area are associated staff. A doctor who is expelled from hospital association has effectively had his New Jerusalem career ended.
An establishment rock-ribbed in its Protestantism, the hospital changed its name at the behest of the last will and testament of Mrs. Mary Elliot Wharton, an Episcopalian, who left the trustees $150,000 for a new wing in 1892. The campus physician is Doc Waldron; his infirmary and office are in the basement of Science Hall.
