Baton Rouge serves as Louisiana’s capital city and a major healthcare hub, with approximately 221,000 residents within city limits and over 785,000 throughout the metropolitan area. To serve this large and diverse population, healthcare providers in the region span the full spectrum from Family Medicine to Advanced Surgical Specialties, from Behavioral Health Services to Cutting-Edge Trauma Care.

The hospital functions as a primary teaching site for graduate medical education programs and serves as a branch campus for LSU School of Medicine.
Baton Rouge General Medical Center has been part of the community since 1900, leading the way with groundbreaking milestones in Louisiana healthcare. The facility was the site of the first heart surgery performed in Baton Rouge, created the very first diabetes program in the area, and opened the first burn center and first cancer program in the state. Operating across multiple campuses, Baton Rouge General continues to provide care spanning from neonatal intensive care to hospice services.
Ochsner Medical Center Baton Rouge brings the resources of Louisiana’s largest private healthcare system to the capital region. Located near Interstate 12 and O’Neal Lane, the facility features private patient rooms and a team of skilled providers delivering 24/7 emergency care, women’s health services, and a Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. The hospital holds the distinction of being Louisiana’s first Baby-Friendly designated hospital and operates the capital region’s largest certified nurse-midwifery program.

Lane Regional Medical Center serves the Zachary area, while numerous specialty clinics and outpatient facilities throughout the region ensure residents have access to focused care across various medical disciplines.
The presence of Louisiana State University and its Health Sciences Center creates a strong connection between academic research and clinical practice.
