Our memorial gazebo, a cherished gift in honor of a beloved former nurse, Denise, RN, has been moved to a new home.

Dedicated in her memory after her passing in 2002, this gazebo was a way for her family to have a proper remembrance of her on our grounds. We are honored to have it on the hospital campus.

A special thanks to our Facilities Management team for carefully relocating it from the Emergency Department entrance to the front of the Medical Center, overlooking the lake. The new setting provides a peaceful and dignified place for quiet reflection, ensuring her memory is honored with the respect it deserves.

The History of Newton Medical Center

More than a century ago, Dr. John T. and Lucena Axtell founded Newton’s first hospital, Axtell Hospital. For four decades, the Axtells served the community until they passed on the hospital to the Kansas Christian Missionary Society. At that time, the name was changed to Axtell Christian Hospital, a Christian Church/Disciples of Christ organization. At the turn of the century, Reverend David Goerz and Sister Frieda Kaufman founded Bethel Deaconess Hospital as a mission of the Mennonite Church. Mennonite deaconesses remained involved with the hospital’s operations until 1983. On Jan. 1, 1988, the two hospitals merged to become Newton Medical Center.
