About Us
A legacy of healing in the heart of Seattle
For more than four decades, Seattle Grace Hospital has been a destination for complex surgical care, groundbreaking research, and the training of exceptional physicians.
Our Mission
Seattle Grace Hospital exists to deliver extraordinary, compassionate medicine to every patient who walks through our doors. As a Level I Trauma Center and one of the nation's leading teaching hospitals, we combine the expertise of nationally ranked surgeons with a relentless commitment to research, education, and patient outcomes.
From the busiest trauma bays to the most delicate neonatal procedures, our teams work shoulder to shoulder across specialties — because the best care is care that's coordinated, curious, and centered on the people we serve.
