History

In 1926, doctors Heber Dill, William Gravett and Frank Dilatush founded the Miami Clinic in a two-story house on West Second Street in Dayton to practice osteopathic medicine. The clinic was later renamed the Dayton Osteopathic Hospital. The hospital outgrew its space and in 1947, relocated to a new 65-bed location on Grand Avenue in Dayton. Although the hospital retained the legal name Dayton Osteopathic Hospital, it subsequently did business as Grandview Hospital and later, Grandview Medical Center.[4][5] In 1999, the hospital merged with Kettering Medical Center to form a single network.[6] In 2021, Grandview took the name Kettering Health Dayton.[7][8]
