Flowers Hospital has served the healthcare needs of the Wiregrass for over 70 years. The facility is not only an important resource for the Dothan community, it also functions as a major referral center for the Tri-State area of south Alabama, southwest Georgia, and northwest Florida. By combining responsible personnel, modern equipment and supplies, effective management, sophisticated support services, up-to-date professional education programs, and a staff of over 300 physicians, Flowers Hospital is able to assure its patients of quality healthcare. Originally opened as a family-operated 12-bed clinic/hospital, Flowers has undergone several subsequent expansions, and in 1983, moved into its current facility. Through its growth, Flowers has remained committed to its mission of "treating our patients as if they are family." Today, Flowers Hospital continues the tradition of maintaining a strong relationship with the community in which it serves.
