In my first essay I talked about how the Marvel Television series are indeed canon to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and I mentioned how the films actually tied-in with the Netflix shows through the appearance of Metro-General Hospital, which in the MCU is an adaptation from the Metro General Hospital seen in the comics.
For those who don't know, I speak Spanish, and the timeline I have worked in in this wikia has been taken to a Spanish blog by me in several articles. And about a week ago I was asked about Metro-General Hospital being so different from the Netflix shows and "Doctor Strange" by a user. So I did my research and found out that they are indeed different at some level. The Netflix one has its own logo, but the Doctor Strange one has another logo. Both are completely unrelated between them.
In Daredevil Season 2 Episode 3 we are told through a screen that Metro-General Hospital is a hospital franchise that consists in at least three differents hospitals.
The logos are: Doctor Strange on the left, Netflix shows on the right:
The logos are indeed different. But, are these (possibly four) hospitals connected? Yes. They are. On July 28th, 2018, an article posted by Forbes mentions how this is indeed a MCU canon connection because they are in the same universe and they are both an adaptation of the Marvel comics hospital that answers to the name: Metro General Hospital.
Not an intentional connection, of course, the logos are different, but is still a connection. Is there any canonical mention of Metropolitan General Hospital (DS) being related to Metro-General Hospital (Netflix shows)? Yes. There is. The "Guidebook to the Marvel Cinematic Universe - Doctor Strange" has a section about Christine Palmer character in the MCU, comparing her to her comics version. A crucial point, and overall, evidence.
The section of Christine Palmer (comics version) tells how she worked in Metropolitan General Hospital in the comics continuity, now this is NOT the name of the comics version. The comics version name is Metro General Hospital, and it answers as well to other names such as:
Metropolitan Hospital
MGH
Metro-General Hospital
And the comics version has changed the logos over time, one having "Metro General Hospital" and other one having "MGH" only. In real life, some hospital franchises (though not common) have different logos for different facilities. And the Marvel Cinematic Universe has now done this as well. The Guidebook relates the name Metropolitan to Metro-General in the comics, and evidently that is now a relation in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, meaning they are connected. The Metro-General comic version is set in Hell's Kitchen, Midtown Manhattan.
In the MCU? I will use some interesting facts I found on media after some days of research. For "Doctor Strange" the Hospital scenes were filmed on a studio in London, but the surroudings of the area were filmed in the real life Hell's Kitchen! To be explicit, in the address: 11th Ave and 53rd St in NYC. The Netflix version has a confirmed address as seen in "Jessica Jones" Season One, the location replaces a real life Hospital, which address is: 479 W 58th St, New York, NY 10019, EE. UU. They are both set in Hell's Kitchen, because as we know: they are both an intentional adaptation from the Metro-General's comic version.
Another fun fact, both addresses are not far apart from each other. They are really close.
So we have the Metropolitan General Hospital franchise which has the "Doctor Strange" logo for Strange's workplace, and it is the face of the franchise, while we have the three Hospitals seen in "Daredevil" and other Netflix series that are under the other logo but the same brand, which happens sometimes in real life and in the comics as well.
It is a MCU connection. And honestly, it has been a fun research to do. What do you think?
Minor update, if you want to inform yourself more about this fun connection, read this article: https://www.retrozap.com/mcu-location-scout-the-many-faces-of-metro-general-hospital/
UPDATE:
The screencap from "Daredevil" S2 E3 provides more information. The franchise is really big! If you look closely, "Metro-General Hospital " also answers to the name "Metro General" (the official name from the comics), and has several "city hospitals" as well as "morgues" under the "Metropolitan" brand.
Furthermore, and thanks to the user @David Kaique , the "Marvel Studios: Character Encyclopedia" confirms what we already know (but it is good to have explicit confirmation). Strange and Plamer worked under the hospital also known as "Metro-General Hospital".
Thanks to this, we can finally put an end to this debate.
