With more than 400 physicians trained in more than 40 subspecialties, it is the first full-service hospital exclusively for children in Louisiana and the Gulf South.

New Orleans is a vibrant city with approximately 1.2 million within the metro area. It is ranked as one of the top visiting destinations in the country. In a recent Brookings Institution study, the New Orleans Metro Area ranked #1 in employment growth compared to Americas 100 largest Metro areas.
