History

Brenner Children's Hospital opened in 1986 thanks to the generosity of the Brenner family, longtime members of the Winston-Salem community. It initially began when the family financed the Brenner Center for Adolescent Medicine in 1981, which was focused on developing a teaching program in adolescent medicine for students and pediatric residents, as well as a clinic at what was then North Carolina Baptist Hospital. At the time, it was the first such center in North Carolina and one of just 27 nationally.

Members of the Brenner family continued to work with hospital officials through the 1980s to create and plan a major hospital devoted to children's medicine. Brenner Children's Hospital opened in 1986, and in 1989 moved into its own wing within the larger hospital. In April 2002, Brenner Children's opened the $132 million Ardmore Tower West. In addition to its 144 private rooms, Brenner Children's has six playrooms, an interactive video wall and a rooftop garden with playground equipment.[4]
