Legacy Good Samaritan Medical Center, commonly known informally as Good Samaritan Hospital or Good Sam, is a 539-bed teaching hospital located in northwest Portland, Oregon, United States. Founded in 1875 by the Episcopal Diocese of Oregon, it is a part of the Legacy Health. It has centers for breast health, cancer, and stroke, and is home to the Legacy Devers Eye Institute, the Legacy Obesity and Diabetes Institute, the Legacy Cancer Institute, the Legacy Rehabilitation Institute of Oregon, and the Linfield-Good Samaritan School of Nursing.
Good Samaritan Hospital was established in October 1875, becoming the second hospital in both the city and state after St. Vincent's had opened in July of that year. The hospital was founded by Rev. Benjamin Wistar Morris and was originally located at northwest 21st and L streets. Initially, the three-story hospital had 25 beds and was built for $10,000. The Wilcox Women's Hospital opened in 1922 as the first women's hospital in the state, which became part of Good Sam in 1979. In 1889, the hospital expanded to be able to handle 75 patients. Another expansion, the addition of the C. H. Lewis wing on the south side of the original structure, began in 1900 with Rev. Morris speaking at the laying of the cornerstone in May of that year.
