Osteopathic Founders Foundation

Supporting the community through projects consistent with the osteopathic philosophy

The Osteopathic Founders Foundation was established January 12, 1943 as the Osteopathic Hospital Founders Association when 10 visionary osteopathic physicians came together to buy a building and create an osteopathic teaching hospital at Ninth and Jackson in downtown Tulsa. The Oklahoma Osteopathic Hospital opened its doors in December, 1944 and was sucessfully operated by the association until its sale of the, then, Tulsa Regional Medical Center in 1996.
