Outpatient Adult Psychiatry at southwest Louisiana's top hospital.
Lake Charles Memorial is looking to add an additional adult psychiatrist. This position will be outpatient focused practice. 1 week (Monday – Friday only, no weekends) of inpatient consults (2-5 during that week) and overnight call, 24-hour response, no going in the middle of the night.
Lake Charles Memorial Health System is southwest Louisiana's only locally owned, non-profit regional health system, governed by a community board and recognized nationally for quality. With 73 behavioral health beds across three distinct units, a Level III Trauma Center, and a Forbes 5-Star rating, this is an institution that has earned its standing as the region's healthcare anchor.
Lake Charles delivers a standard of living most physicians cannot find at this price point. With a cost of living 14 percent below the national average, median home prices around $220,000, and a cultural scene built on Cajun and Creole tradition, the city pairs real financial advantage with a lifestyle that is genuinely hard to replicate. Year-round fishing, 75-plus annual festivals, a growing downtown, strong private school options, and easy access to Houston and New Orleans make Lake Charles a compelling place to build a career and a life.
