St. Mary Medical Center

With its many physician offices and outpatient centers in Lake and Porter counties, St. Mary Medical Center provides a broad range of healthcare services for the area’s fastest growing communities. The hospital has earned a reputation for service excellence and patient-focused care, as well as clinical excellence having been named to Thomson Reuters’ Top 50 Healthcare Systems in 2009.

St. Mary Medical Center has a long history of cardiac research, pioneering new treatments for heart rhythm disorders. Innovative models of care can be found through its award-winning Joint Academy program, the only program in Northwest Indiana designated by the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association as a Blue Distinction Center for hip and knee replacements. Cutting-edge care is also found through the hospital’s functional medicine program, a birthing center supported by doulas, midwives and hydrotherapy tub for a highly personalized birthing experience, and the Women’s Diagnostic Center with same-day mammogram and breast biopsy results options.

As part of the not-for-profit Community Healthcare System patients have access to the latest medical technologies: DaVinci Robotics Surgical System, CyberKnife, PET, and Dual-Source CT. St. Mary Medical Center has undergone extensive renovations to support a model of care focused on serving the unique needs of each person. An all-private room patient tower and a soon-to-be-completed expanded Emergency Department set new standards in patient comfort, privacy and efficiency.
