Dr. Jacob Wheeler Bird arrived in Sandy Spring, Maryland in the 1910's with the dream of beginning his medical practice. He rented Wrenwood, a private home, which became his first hospital. In 1918, he broke ground for the new hospital which was to be the first acute care hospital in Montgomery County. The original hospital had 28 beds.
