Continuing a legacy of women's health at Telfair BirthPlace
Mary Telfair's vision of benevolent healthcare for women began in 1886 with the opening of the Telfair Hospital for Females, and her legacy continues at Telfair BirthPlace today. Over the years, our hospital has evolved, but our commitment to women’s health remains as strong as ever. As part of the region’s largest healthcare provider, St. Joseph’s/Candler, we honor her mission by delivering respectful and comprehensive care that puts families first. Our history and modern approach to maternity care make us the most trusted choice for women across the region.
