Message From The CEO

It is with great pleasure that I serve central Louisiana and Allen Parish.  We believe that working in a hospital and serving the patients, families, physicians, and each other is a privilege. When you visit Oakdale Community Hospital, the level of service should parallel what you would find in a five star hotel.

It is our job to provide outstanding healthcare. Our employees desire to provide an atmosphere that is quiet, gentile, and obliging. We pride ourselves on the cleanliness and professionalism of ALL our staff. 

Our ER and outpatient testing wait times are far less than what you would find in Alexandria. It is unheard of for a person to wait eight (8) hours in our ER for care. I encourage those in central Louisiana to utilize our facility for inpatient or outpatient services. 

Please contact me with any suggestions or concerns.

With kindest regards, I remain

Cordially,

John Wesley Stigall, I
CEO
