Usc Verdugo Hills Hospital

Our mission is to provide personalized, high-quality healthcare relevant to our patient community. USC Verdugo Hills Hospital began as Behrens Memorial Hospital, which was established in 1947. Instead of attempting to expand the Behrens facility, a new hospital was built on the hilltop land donated by the Greene family. In 1972, our hospital was created as Verdugo Hills Hospital and was an independent, 158-bed acute care hospital serving patients in the cities of Glendale and La Cañada Flintridge, as well as the surrounding Foothill communities of Southern California for more than 40 years. In 2013, Verdugo Hills Hospital partnered with the University of Southern California (USC), creating USC Verdugo Hills Hospital. USC Verdugo Hills became part of Keck Medicine of USC, which includes the Keck Medical Center of USC and Keck School of Medicine of USC. All are part of USC, one of the world’s leading private research universities.
