Concordia Hospital is a regional hospital in Winnipeg, Manitoba that was founded in 1928,[2] and has a primary service area with a population exceeding 150,000.[3] The hospital's name originates from a poem entitled "Song of the Church Bell" by German poet and philosopher Friedrich Schiller. The inspirational line reads, "Concordia shall be her name; to harmony, to hearty fellowship, it summons the cherished community."[4]

Concordia Hospital is Winnipeg's leading hip and knee surgery hospital, conducting 1,508 hip and knee surgeries during the 2011 fiscal year, more than any other Winnipeg facility.[5][6] As of 2022, the hospital had 164 beds, declining from the previous years according to the Winnipeg Regional Health Authority.[1]
