Gillette Children's Specialty Healthcare

Since 1897, Gillette Children's has been making a difference in the lives of children with disabilities. Underlying our medical expertise is the care, dignity and respect that each child receives in our hospital and clinics.

From the very beginning, Gillette Children's was driven by the belief that children with disabilities should have access to specialized health care. To that end, Gillette Children's is an independent, not-for-profit hospital with clinics in several locations throughout Minnesota, enabling families to receive care a little closer to home.

Our main campus, in St. Paul, MN, includes a newly remodeled and expended outpatient clinic, a hospital, Motion Analysis Laboratory, as well as many specialty services. Each year, we see over 45,000 patients and perform more than 1,500 surgeries.

Gillette Children's West Clinic is located in Minnetonka and serves families in the west metro area and western Minnesota. In addition to specialty clinics, this clinic offers assistive technology services, sports medicine, and physical, occupational and speech therapy.

To better serve families in northern Minnesota, we established Gillette Children's North Clinics. Based in Duluth, these clinics offer many of Gillette's services in more than 10 communities throughout northern Minnesota and western Wisconsin. In addition to our clinics, we also have the Gillette Technology Center, a full-service assistive technology center in New Brighton. Here, our specialists design and create custom orthoses (braces) and seating systems. They also provide assessments for assistive technology.
