Mease Dunedin Hospital

[2] Dr. Jack Mease purchased a 10-acre plot of land at Milwaukee Avenue and Virginia Street from the Dunedin City Commission at the behest of Dunedin's residents who requested he build a hospital in their town during the Great Depression.

Construction on Mease Dunedin Hospital began in 1933 and was completed on April 18, 1937.

[3] Most of the construction workers were Mease's own patients who worked on the hospital in order to pay off their debts.

Businessmen in Clearwater predicted we wouldn't even finish the basement... Mease Dunedin underwent a significant expansion project from 2008 to 2012.

In May 2012, the surgical operating rooms were renovated to better fit the equipment required for "complex orthopedic and spine procedures.
