At East Jefferson General Hospital, we know women rule. Today’s women

making all the healthcare decisions for yourselves, your families, and
eventually, even for your parents.
We recognize that, and that is why we have built entire service lines with
you in mind. Our goal is to provide these healthcare services with heart
and make them as convenient and personalized as possible.

Mammography
Each year, nearly 27,000 women in Louisiana will be diagnosed with breast
cancer. Almost 10,000 will die from the disease. The best tools we have
to prevent these deaths are awareness and mammography.
The Breast Care Center at East Jefferson General Hospital is the region’s
most advanced/comprehensive center for breast cancer diagnosis and prevention.
Our radiologists specialize in Breast Cancer diagnoses, which means that
our advanced technology is used by the best doctors to provide you with
the best care. That specialization gives you the greatest levels of confidence
in both what is detected and just as importantly, what is not found.
When it is time for you to start, or add to your family, turn to East Jefferson
General Hospital’s Women and Newborn team to ensure you, and your
baby have the best, safest, healthiest experience possible. Nowhere in
our region will you find a more comprehensive program to carry you through
prenatal care, to a safe and healthy birthing process, lactation education,
postpartum care, and more. From the birthing experience to our highly
qualified NICU physicians and nurses, we deliver healthcare with heart
for both mother and baby. We have been recognized by clinical experts
as the most advanced center for safe birthing experiences. But just as
importantly, nowhere will you find a more caring, professional, dedicated
staff than here. Every day, we deliver for those mothers coming here trusting
us with the delivery of their baby.
Minimally invasive hysterectomy
Today’s minimally invasive surgeries are unlike anything before.
The incisions are dramatically smaller, the surgical time is shorter,
the hospital stay is shorter, the recovery time is dramatically shorter,
and the results are superior. East Jefferson General Hospital helped pioneer
this more patient-friendly approach to surgeries in this region and, over
the past decade, has continuously raised the bar in providing extraordinary
care and outcomes. Most importantly, the continuity of care that you will
receive knowing that the same doctor-surgeon who performs your hysterectomy
is also there to assist in all other aspects of your menopausal and post-menopausal
health gives you peace of mind.
