For more than 70 years, Nicklaus Children's Hospital has provided state-of-the-art pediatric care for South Florida's children. The idea for the unique pediatric hospital dates back to the 1930s when Miami's leading orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Arthur Weiland, proposed building a South Florida hospital for children with debilitating orthopedic conditions.
