Morehouse General Hospital is proud to offer our community the latest surgical services and expert care provided by highly skilled medical professionals.


Day Surgery

Minor surgery doesn't have to be a major inconvenience. MGH maintains a fully-accredited Day Surgery Department and performs many routine surgical procedures on an outpatient basis. Located in the new hospital expansion on the 2nd floor, Day Surgery offers:

  • Highly skilled, experienced surgical teams
  • Modern, fully-equipped surgery suites
  • Comfortable private rooms - with chairs, sofa and TV

For more information call 556-8500 or e-mail us.
Hours: M-F, 6 am - 7 pm.


Endoscopic / Laproscopic Surgery

Thanks to advanced medical technology, some surgeries no longer require a large incision. In some cases, microsurgical instruments with a tiny video camera attached allow the surgeon to complete a procedure through a few half-inch incisions. The result: faster recovery, less pain, less blood loss, and less scarring. Find out if minimally invasive surgery is an option for you. Visit us (you'll find our waiting room on the hospital's first floor facing West Traylor Avenue), e-mail us, or call 283-3623. Hours: 6:30 am - 2:30 pm M - F.


Cosmetic Facial Resurfacing Laser Surgery

An affordable, comfortable new treatment to reduce wrinkles is here in Northeast Louisiana! Dr. James R. McCue, an ophthalmologist for 19 years, now offers CO2 laser facial resurfacing, a new procedure that is a booming success. This technique is extremely effective and far more affordable than surgery or chemical peels. If you want to keep your good looks longer, call 281-2705 or e-mail us for more information.
