William Cline Borden was an American surgeon who lived from 1858 to 1934 and who was a key planner behind the Walter Reed Army Medical Center. He also served as dean of the School of Medicine at George Washington University. The medical center website credits him as the initiator, planner and effective mover for the creation, location and first congressional support of the center, and for that reason the institution is still sometimes referred to as Borden's dream. His career joined military medicine, hospital planning and academic medical leadership.
