Little Company of Mary Hospital

OSF Little Company of Mary Medical Center is a 252-bed acute care facility located in Evergreen Park, Illinois, serving the southwest Chicago area. Founded in 1930 by the Sisters of the Little Company of Mary, the hospital is historically notable for being the site of the world's first successful human organ transplant (a kidney) in 1950. The medical center provides a comprehensive range of services, including advanced oncology care through its dedicated cancer center, cardiovascular services, and maternal-child health. In 2020, the hospital officially joined OSF HealthCare, a prominent integrated health system, to enhance its clinical capabilities and financial stability. It continues to operate as a key community healthcare hub with a focus on Catholic healthcare traditions.
