History

In 1908, Dr. Julius Bellin founded the Deaconess Sanitarium in a house he owned in Green Bay, Wisconsin.[1] The next year, the hospital began an affiliation with the Methodist Church.

In 1915, the Deaconess Sanitarium was renamed Wisconsin Deaconess Sanitarium.[1] In 1916, they built their first hospital building. In 1923, they built a north wing addition.[1]

In 1925, the board of directors renamed the hospital Bellin Memorial Hospital over Dr. Bellin's objections as a tribute to him.[1] Dr. Bellin died in 1928.

In 1970, the hospital began Green Bay's first alcohol and drug abuse program.[1]

In 1977, the hospital sponsored the first annual Bellin Run.

In 1989, they founded the Bellin Psychiatric Center.[1]

In January 1994, Bellin opened their first Family Medical Center in Denmark, Wisconsin.[1]

In 2005, Bellin became one of the first hospitals to begin robotic assisted surgery.[1]

In 2006, Bellin Health opened their first FastCare clinics in area Shopko stores.[1]

In 2012, Bellin Health expanded and opened their new emergency department on the north side of the Bellin Hospital building.

In 2016, Bellin Health broke ground on a new sports medicine and orthopedics clinic in the Green Bay Packers Titletown District.[2]
