Join us for a Teddy Bear Clinic!
Bring your favorite stuffed animal to the Teddy Bear Clinic and let our medical professionals administer a check-up, treatment and provide hope and healing.
10 a.m. to noon
Saturday, September 20, 2025
at Shriners Children’s Lexington, 110 Conn Terrace, Lexington, KY
*Free parking is available in the garage at 110 Transcript Ave. Please park on the end closest to Limestone. Use
Level 3 or take the elevator to Level 3, then take the pedway to Shriners Children’s Lexington.
Children will have an opportunity to play nurse and physician as their stuffed animal undergoes a ‘pretend’ surgery. Each child will start at the beginning of the registration process and work their way through to the recovery room. They will be provided a mask, surgical hat, cotton padding, Band-Aids and an opportunity to interact with simple surgical instruments as they work to heal
their stuffed animal back to perfect health. Upon conclusion of their stuffed animal’s surgery, they will receive a tour of the medical center’s operating rooms and ask a staff member questions about the surgery.
The goal of the Teddy Bear Clinic is that each child leaves with a decreased fear about hospitalization and possible inspiration to pursue a career path in the medical field!
