The house is a 1911 Georgian colonial home and has been housing patients of the clinic since its inception in 1984. Originally, the house was home to the Judd Family, who included Dr. E. Starr Judd, one of the first surgical partners of Drs. Charles and William Mayo in 1907. [ [http://www.gift-of-life.org/history.asp History of Our 1911 House ] ]
