The Toronto General Hospital (TGH), is a major teaching hospital in downtown Toronto, Ontario, and a part of the University Health Network. It is located in the Discovery District, directly north of the Hospital for Sick Children, across Gerrard Street West, and east of Princess Margaret Cancer Centre and Mount Sinai Hospital, across University Avenue. They are steps from Queen's Park and the Queen's Park subway station. The University Health Network of which Toronto General Hospital is a part of, was ranked 1st in Canada in terms of research funding by Research Infosource Inc's "Canada's Top 40 Research Hospitals 2012". The hospital serves as a teaching hospital for the University of Toronto Faculty of Medicine. The emergency department now treats 28,065 persons each year, while the hospital also houses the major transplantation service for Ontario, performing heart, lung, kidney, liver, pancreas and small intestine, amongst others, for patients referred from all over Canada. The hospital is the largest organ transplant center in Canada. The world's first single and double lung transplants were performed at TGH in 1983 and 1986. The world's first valve-sparing aortic root replacement was done by Dr. Tirone David at Toronto General Hospital in 1992. TGH teaches resident physicians, nurses, and technicians, and conducts research through the Toronto General Research Institute. Currently, Sophie, Countess of Wessex, as a member of the Canadian Royal Family, is patron of the hospital. ==History==
The hospital started as a small shed in the old town and was used as a military hospital during the War of 1812, after which it was founded as a permanent institutionYork General Hospitalin 1829, at John and King Streets (now home to Bell Lightbox). In 1855 a new home for the hospital was built on the north side of Gerrard Street, east of Parliament, using a design by architect William Hay. In 1913, the hospital moved to its current location, since expanding and upgrading over the ensuing years. The 1913 structure, previously called the ''College Wing'', was eventually sold by the hospital, to become the home of the MaRS Discovery District after a new wing for the TGH was completed and opened in 2002.
