New Bolton Center opened in 1954.
It comprises the George D. Widener Hospital for Large Animals, featuring one of the world's largest equine surgical facilities, the Marshak Dairy, the Laboratory of Aquatic Animal Medicine and Pathology and one of Pennsylvania's three Animal Diagnostic Laboratories.
The Widener Hospital sees more than 6,000 patients a year. And that doesn't include the Field Service, which sees more than 19,000 animals annually at farms, breeders, horse-training facilities and agricultural enterprises in the region.
Watch the video below about New Bolton Center, "On Any Given Day," which was made in 2002 to mark the center's 50th anniversary.
