Maryland General Hospital (MGH) is a 200-bed, urban community teaching hospital serving patients in Baltimore City. It is one of just a few community hospitals in Maryland to offer comprehensive specialty inpatient care in neurosurgery, orthopedics, obstetrics and gynecology, women’s health, behavioral health, vascular and thoracic surgery, as well as a number of other surgical specialties, including gastroenterology, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, and otolaryngology.

MGH has over 550 community physicians on its staff, including specialists in more than 30 areas. With its 24/7 hospitalist and surgical house officer programs, patients are ensured continuity of care from admission to discharge. Maryland General Hospital was one of the first hospitals in Baltimore to establish an outreach program offering education, prevention and screening, serving individuals who face significant barriers in obtaining high quality and affordable care.
