Glimpses
Ochsner Health is committed to expanding healthcare access to communities across Louisiana. With the launch of two new healthcare facilities in the past year, that goal is being realized.
On February 3, 2023, Ochsner Lafayette General held a ribbon cutting to celebrate the one-year anniversary of its Community Health Center located at 1317 Jefferson Street. Since opening its doors on January 24, 2022, there have been more than 7,200 patient visits to the Ochsner Lafayette General Community Health Center, which has created an avenue for greater access to healthcare for the residents of Lafayette’s Downtown, Port Rico and Freetown communities—areas that were sorely lacking healthcare resources.
On January 31, 2023, leaders from Ochsner Health and Jefferson Parish celebrated the opening of the Ochsner Medical Complex – Clearview in Metairie with a ribbon cutting ceremony. The new healthcare destination will expand patient access to primary and specialty healthcare services. In addition to offering state-of-the-art technology and comprehensive services, the facility features patient-friendly amenities like valet parking, a drive through pharmacy and a luxury cosmetic and wellness center.
