About Us

When it comes to expertise in a large number of medical specialties, people in Lafayette know their hospitals are more than up to the task from open heart surgery and balloon angioplasty, to neurosurgery and neonatal intensive care. From the simplest procedure, to the most critical, St. Elizabeth Regional Health strides to meet the needs of our community with exacting precision and proven experience.

Yet if experience has taught us anything, it's that you never rest on your laurels. You never stop improving. St. Elizabeth Central and St. Elizabeth East are always looking for ways to improve our care through the latest technology, new procedures, better medicines and new medical findings. 

At St. Elizabeth Regional Health, we're always finding ways to get better, so our patients can, too.
