Erzsébet Hospital

Intro

Eclectic, 1898. Hüben Jenő (1907)
9 decades from the firs construction of the hospital building complex to the diagnostic wing. The first hospital, then named the "hospital", was built in 1833 in the today's Hódi Pál street. The new, modern tow-storey Erzsébet eye hospital (today's lung and dermatological department) was built in 1898. Over the next decade, health care has envolved. Jenő Hüber designed it in 1907 and built 6 new departments in 1909. But maternity and gynecological care was missing. To this end, another level was added to the one-story main buildingin 1928, while Alfréd jendrasik, architect, designed the basement + 3 levels + new mansard-trained ophthalmic, ear nose, child and laboratory units. Construction works where divided in to two sections by the World War II. (prosecution 1956; modern kitchen 1961; three-storey diagnostic wing for the surgical building, obstetrics and intensive care were provided between 1985 and 1990 outside the X-ray department).
In the hospital buildig complex, the blood donation station and the nurse accomodation were built in 1972.
The bust of Dr. József Imre (the work of János Pásztor) is in the park from 1928. The hospital's best doctors memory (József Imre, Pál Ormos, Béla Deutsch) is kept on the wall of the surgica building
