Ochsner Medical Complex — The Grove:
Next-Generation Health Solutions for the Baton Rouge Region

After years of planning, design and construction, Ochsner celebrated the opening of Ochsner Medical Complex — The Grove in 2019.

Ochsner Medical Complex - The Grove represents the largest single investment in the history of Ochsner Health.

The Grove represents the largest single investment in the history of Ochsner Health, with features and capabilities that reflect the newest, most innovative thinking about how to enhance the patient experience.

Every aspect of The Grove has been designed with patient needs in mind. Greeters welcome patients and help guide them to traditional registration or to new electronic registration kiosks. An on-site pharmacy fills prescriptions after clinic appointments, while also delivering them to patients in the hospital before they go home. The MRI Caring Suite pairs precise imaging and quiet technology with a patient experience that includes customizable music, lighting and video. And the open concept occupational and physical therapy space is ideal for one-on-one rehabilitation and aqua therapy. Another important feature: a large O Bar, assisting patients in the Baton Rouge area enrolling in our Digital Medicine programs.

The Grove is the newest and most visible example of our commitment to the Baton Rouge community — but it is far from being the only one.

In our five-story medical office building and next-generation surgical hospital, we offer world-class, patient-centered technology and equipment unmatched in Baton Rouge. From primary and specialty care to full-service diagnostics, imaging and lab services, noninvasive procedures, physical and occupational therapy and 10 overnight-stay Optimal Hospital rooms, everything our patients need is available in one convenient location. The Grove also offers more access, with nearly 250 exam and procedure rooms, we now have the capacity to see over 2,000 patients per day.

The Grove is the newest and most visible example of our commitment to the Baton Rouge community — but it is far from being the only one. The area is home to Ochsner Medical Center — Baton Rouge as well as 13 health centers across Ascension, East Baton Rouge, Iberville, Livingston and Tangipahoa parishes, where more than 2,000 Ochsner team members are dedicated to outstanding patient care. 

Enhancing Access Across
Greater Baton Rouge

Ochsner’s presence in Baton Rouge dates back more than 30 years, and in addition to Ochsner Medical Complex — The Grove, we’re making other investments to improve access and expand capabilities across the region. Included are two new urgent care centers in the area, offering more convenient care on weekends and after hours. Construction began in 2019 on Ochsner Health Center — Bluebonnet South with a grand opening in July 2020. Future plans call for both a health center and physical therapy space in Gonzales. In Prairieville, we began expanding our health center to nearly double the square footage. And in Hammond, we plan to add a 5,000-square-foot physical therapy location as well.
