At Southwest Health, we believe in the importance of health and community. Our community members choose our hospitals because we serve our patients with a focus on them; your neighbors in the community are caring for you, not strangers. We go further so you don't have to.
Elizabeth Holmes wasn’t feeling like herself. Seeking answers, she decided to see Dr. Patrick Daigle, a board-certified obstetrician/gynecologist with Southwest Mississippi Regional Medical Center.
As it turned out, Elizabeth was experiencing all the symptoms of premature menopause, which affects five percent of women before the age of 45. She and Dr. Daigle thoroughly discussed numerous options, including medication and minimally invasive procedures. “I never felt rushed when I was talking with Dr. Daigle about my possible treatments,” Elizabeth says. “He had my full attention and gave me all the time I needed to answer my questions so I could feel confident about my decision.”
Guided by Dr. Daigle’s expertise, Elizabeth ultimately decided to proceed with a robotic hysterectomy utilizing the daVinci® Surgical System, a technologically advanced, minimally invasive approach to surgery that reduces pain, accelerates recovery time, and minimizes scarring.
Our mission is to lead the healthcare field in our region by providing excellent healthcare services for our community, while raising the healthcare standards in Southwest Mississippi as well as Louisiana. We want to serve the needs of our community, medical staff, employees, and-above all-our patients.
When you choose Southwest Health, you can have confidence that our priorities are straight. We are pleased to serve as your healthcare provider, no matter how short or long your stay. Our goal is to make your experience at Southwest Health as comfortable and relaxed as possible.
Southwest Health is proud to serve patients in Southwest Mississippi and Northern Louisiana with excellence, compassion, and dedication. Without our healthcare system, our patients would be forced to drive between 60 to 100 miles to receive an adequate level of care. We believe that small communities should still have access to the best healthcare, and our actions prove our dedication.
While many other health systems of our size have eventually been bought out or forced to file bankruptcy, Southwest Health has remained at the forefront of cutting-edge medical care due to our teams' forward-thinking plans that ensure the development of a vital, growing, and-ultimately-long-lasting healthcare system for residents of our community.
