SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children's Hospital is a non profit 195 bed inpatient and outpatient pediatric medical center in St. Louis, Missouri. Since its founding in 1956, SSM Health Cardinal Glennon has provided care for children regardless of ability to pay. SSM Health Cardinal Glennon primarily serves children from eastern Missouri and southern Illinois, but also treats children across the United States and from countries around the world. SSM Health Cardinal Glennon also serves as a teaching hospital affiliated with the neighboring Saint Louis University School of Medicine and Nursing, and nine other education institutes. SSM Health Cardinal Glennon is a member of SSM Health, one of the largest Catholic health care systems in the country. SSM Health is sponsored by the Franciscan Sisters of Mary and owns, operates and manages hospitals in four states — Missouri, Illinois, Wisconsin and Oklahoma. In 2002, SSM Health was the first health care organization in the country to be named a Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award winner. In 2005, Cardinal Glennon's former director of orthopedic surgery, Dr. J. David Thompson, sued the hospital for wrongful termination, alleging that the clinic performed ghost surgeries on children.

Originally named Cardinal Glennon Memorial Hospital for Children after John Cardinal Glennon the Archbishop of St. Louis from 1903 to 1946, the hospital first opened its doors on July 5, 1956. Dr. Peter G. Danis (father of Timothy J. Danis), Leo Wieck, Frank J. Guyol, and the Franciscan Sisters of Mary
were very instrumental regarding the founding of the hospital.
