About Us

At Children’s of Mississippi, you’ll find health care designed just for kids.

Children's of Mississippi is the name for all pediatric services at University of Mississippi Medical Center, the state's only academic medical center. Our goal is to help Mississippi kids live strong, healthy lives.

With Children's of Mississippi Hospital (the state's only children's hospital) plus clinics statewide, our doctors specialize in caring for children from birth through the teen years, all in bright, family-friendly spaces.

One Children’s Hospital

Children's of Mississippi Hospital in Jackson has grown! With the opening of the new Kathy and Joe Sanderson Tower, we have more space and state-of-the-art equipment to serve Mississippi kids.

Care that Covers the State

Our growing network serves towns across Mississippi, from the Gulf Coast to Tupelo. Multiple locations make it easier to see pediatric doctors quickly, so every kid has a chance to heal, play, learn, and thrive close to home.
