History
MidMichigan Medical Center-Midland was designed by architect Alden B. Dow and constructed amid wartime restrictions in 1943-44. The first fifty years of the hospital's history is chronicled in the book, A Journey of Caring, by Dorthoy Langdon Yates.
Over the years, MidMichigan Medical Center-Midland became co-owned with hospitals in Clare, Gladwin and Alma; as a result the Medical Center in Midland became the flagship hospital of MidMichigan Health, which has been headquartered in Midland ever since.
