This is the story, described through the decades of a changing nation, of what made Wentworth-Douglass Hospital the Seacoast’s Leading Hospital, the fastest growing birth center, a major trauma center and dedicated state-of-the-art Cancer Center. It took foresight, fundraising, ambitious recruitment and even court battles to turn a city hospital into a formidable regional health care resource – now part of the Mass General Brigham health system. Presented by Noreen Biehl, retired Vice President of Community Relations at WDH and author of A Place of Healing: A History of Wentworth-Douglass Hospital.
