Since 1978 Leonard J. Chabert Medical Center (LJCMC) has been caring for the underserved in the region. In addition to this mission, the hospital was established as a graduate medical teaching facility to provide clinical training for physicians, nurses and allied health personnel.

I was rushed to Terrebonne General with slurred speech and the left side of my face dropping. They sent me home with the diagnosis of "Heat Stroke". Chabert found a blockage in my carotid artery. Thanks to my PD nurse Jennifer and Doctor Gupta for catching my symptoms I didn't realize was happening now I will get the medical attention I really need. Thanks Dr. Alan Arcemont as well, for listening to my symptoms and not brushing me off.

Being sick is stressful and can be annoying but when a healthcare professional is considerate and pleasant, it makes a huge difference. Ms. C. Coleman (can’t recall the spelling of her first name) was extremely helpful and helped to ease the process. All it takes is a smile and kind words sometimes. Thank you

Chabert is and up and coming hospital. When I was young I always knew it as a charity place that barely had anyone seen in a timely manner but as of late it has stepped its game up. I would recommend this hospital over TGMC any day of the week. The staff are passionate & allow you to feel seen.
