Nearly six decades ago, local founders of Olathe Health System envisioned a responsive and responsible healthcare provider to the families in our communities, a continuum of compassionate competent care that would span every stage of life. This indigenous healthcare startup thrived in native soil, growing from a modest 30-bed hospital in 1953 to a vital regional health network today that serves five counties through Olathe Medical Center, Miami County Medical Center, the 34 family care and specialty clinics of Olathe Medical Services, and a roster of more than 300 physicians and 2,600 employees.
