Despite the challenges posed by the rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, we have remained resilient and agile, adapting to the changing needs of our patients and embracing opportunities for advancement. I am so proud to be a part of a team dedicated to transforming the type of care available to our community. This growth is only possible through the constant commitment and tireless work of our Memorial family. The recruitment and integration of new physicians and clinics to Memorial has been exciting and fulfilling, knowing we are able to offer more options for care to the people in southwest Louisiana. We continue to ensure that Memorial is the healthcare destination of choice for all people in SWLA, and that it’s a place that heals and provides compassionate care close to home.

None of our achievements would have been possible without the unwavering dedication and expertise of our exceptional team. I am immensely proud of our healthcare professionals who go above and beyond, day in and day out, to deliver outstanding care to our patients. Their compassion, skills and commitment to excellence have been the driving force behind our success. As you read the stories of patients, physicians and community members engaged in our mission, I hope that you are encouraged by the words that provide you with a glimpse into the transformative power of our services and the meaningful connections we forge. We understand that the best healthcare is not solely about treating illnesses; it is about fostering genuine connections, instilling hope and empowering individuals to live their lives to the fullest. On behalf of your healthcare home, I extend my heartfelt gratitude to our friends, partners and patients for their unwavering support. Together, we are transforming healthcare and building a healthier future for the home we all love. Sincerely, Devon Hyde, President and CEO
