Dallas medical history: "Map It!"

Do you know where the first open-heart surgery in Dallas was performed? Where was St. Paul Sanitarium built? What about the first “Baby Camp” cottage in Texas? Find more than 50 of these historic locations with the map feature in the Library’s Medical Milestones in Dallas, 1890-1975 web exhibit.

To explore, click on the “Browse Items” tab in the web exhibit, then select Browse Map. Zoom into the map for greater detail. Web exhibit items are marked on the map with red map pin icons.
