Founded in 1918, Methodist Healthcare is an integrated healthcare delivery system employing more than 10,000 Associates, making us the second largest private employer in the Memphis area.

Our modest beginnings were in one hospital on the current site of Methodist University Hospital. Today we are an seven-hospital system with a home health agency and clinics in Shelby and Fayette counties and more than 1,600 beds throughout the system.  Our specialty areas - cardiology, oncology, neurosciences, pediatrics at Le Bonheur Children's Medical Center and transplant - help us further our cause of providing top quality healthcare to the Mid-South.

Only through our partnership with our medical staff and Associates are we able to achieve our vision. With almost 2,000 physicians in our system, Methodist Healthcare is the health system of choice for many of the nation's leading physicians in neurosurgery, oncology, transplant surgery and pediatric care.

Affiliated with the Memphis, Mississippi and Arkansas Conferences of The United Methodist Church, Methodist Healthcare combines a dedication to the art of healing with a Christ-centered commitment to minister to the whole person.
