The Siskin Hospital Difference

We...

• Are Tennessee's only freestanding, non-profit hospital built and dedicated exclusively to physical rehabilitation.
• Are dedicated to providing patients with a full continuum of care- from the event of their injury or illness to their return to the community, work or school.
• Were constructed and designed with rehabilitation in mind. This means wide hallways and elevators, large patient rooms and bathrooms, a wealth of community spaces and a warm atmosphere.
• Provide more than $1 million in care each year to patients in financial need. 
• Are a community-based hospital with leadership and board members who are active in and have strong ties to the Chattanooga community.
• Offer more than 20 specialty programs and five levels of care, all on our centrally located downtown campus.
• Are consistent leaders in the physical rehabilitation field, offering comprehensive, expert care equaling or exceeding that found in major Southeastern cities.

• Only hospital in the Chattanooga area with consistent leadership from opening day to present day.
• Only inpatient lymphedema program in the Eastern U.S. and only hospital-based clinic in the country.
• One of the first hospitals in the country to offer VitalStimTM Therapy for the treatment of swallowing problems.
• Only therapeutic pool in a Chattanooga area hospital.
• Only specifically designed Brain Injury Unit in the Chattanooga area.

Siskin Hospital is committed to providing our patients with the best possible care, while always remaining hopeful and professional.
