Recognized throughout Maryland and the mid-Atlantic region as a valuable resource for critically and chronically injured children, the University of Maryland Hospital for Children combine state-of-the-art medicine with family-centered care. We understand that children aren't merely small adults, which is why we treat them as unique individuals.
