SVMH Medical Museum After collecting medical artifacts, many from the Salinas Valley, Dr. June Dunbar donated her collection to a dedicated exbibit of medical history at the Museum of Medical History, which opened in 1998. The museum is located at the bottom of the parking garage and has instruments from doctors practicing in 1850. The SVMH Medical Museum exhibits include amputation sets, bottles from druggists, instruments used for tonsillectomies, and other exhibits focusing on local medical history. A replica of the office of Dr. Henry Murphy shows how medicine was practiced in the years John Steinbeck grew up. The museum has the operating table Murphy used when he removed Steinbeck's tonsils. The museum is open to the public and for school tours. According to one of the museum displays, the Service League donated $75,000 to start the construction of the museum. The Hospital Board of Directors worked with Director of Facilities and Construction Barbara Sullivan to create the displays. Hospital medical staff purchased a collection of 18th and 19th-century medical instruments for $50,000.
