Exclusively at its New York City and Chicago flagship stores, American Girl announced all-new American Girl Doll Hospitals that offer free services. At the in-store Doll Hospitals, there are doll wellness exams available from Doll Doctors, who are equipped to measure the pulse, temperature and reflexes of 18-inch American Girl dolls.
The American Girl Doll Hospitals are also full of interactive play stations where kids can perform their own doll eye exams, x-rays and dental check-ups. With each visit, girls will receive a free Certificate of Good Health, along with tips for caring for their dolls at home. In the case that a doll needs serious or specific repairs, there are also appointments that can be scheduled at the two new American Girl Doll Hospital locations to bring a doll back to better health.
