Patients flock to Paducah from across a four-state region, drawn by the outstanding outcomes and preeminent reputations of providers including:

Baptist Health Paducah: Large-in-size (with a main campus covering eight city blocks), this 373-bed acute and skilled care facility is also expansive in the services provided by a staff of 2,000, including a roster of 260 physicians representing 40 specialties. Specialized care here is also personalized, and Baptist Health Paducah is powerfully equipped for its local focus by the solid financial and foundational support of the Baptist Health system, Kentucky’s largest non-profit healthcare system.

Mercy Health-Lourdes Hospital: This 303-bed facility achieved an early designation by Anthem Blue Cross as a Blue Distinction Center for Maternity Care, just one of the many certifications and awards that patient-centered care has earned the hospital. And at Mercy Health-Lourdes, excellent local care is backed by the multi-state Mercy system’s strength of commitment that stretches back well over a century.

Norton Children’s Hospital Outpatient Clinic: This outpatient clinic of a nationally recognized children’s hospital provides the latest in specialized pediatric care in the convenient and collaborative setting of the Baptist Prime Center.
