History

History of St Patrick Hospital
In the early 1900s Lake Charles La was the center of a growing lumber industry yet it had no hospitals Seeing the need for a quality medical facility John Greene Martin MD president of the local medical society and Rev Hubert Cramers rector of Immaculate Conception Church set about to provide for one

They approached the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word in Galveston Texas for help in setting up a hospital in Lake Charles like the one the sisters had established in Galveston When the hospital was finished Dr Martin a native of Ireland insisted that it be named after St Patrick the patron saint of his homeland

The new threestory hospital was dedicated on St Patricks Day in 1908 as St Patrick Sanitarium with 50 beds an operating room and a sterilizing room The name was later changed to St Patrick Hospital which has continued its tradition of dedication and quality medical care for almost 100 years
