Our first gift shop opened in the Spring of 1940. Since then, it has grown into a beloved staple of the medical center for visitors, patients, and staff.

Today we are proud to have three gift shops! It's the perfect place to find something special for yourself or someone you love.

The photos here showcase our first shop in 1940 at St. Luke's Hospital to our most recent opening of the RAB Boutique in 2023.

Stop by one of shops today! 🐰
