Regarded as one of the premier health care systems in the nation, Baptist Memorial Health Care is an award-winning network dedicated to providing compassionate, high-quality care for our patients.
Since our modest beginning in 1912 with a 150-bed hospital, Baptist has grown to meet the expanding needs of the communities we serve, at one point becoming the largest privately owned hospital in the nation.
In keeping with the three-fold ministry of Christ — Healing, Preaching and Teaching — Baptist Memorial Health Care is committed to providing quality health care.
We will be the provider of choice by transforming the delivery of health care through partnering with patients, families, physicians, care providers, employers and payers; and by offering safe, integrated, patient-focused, high quality, innovative and cost-effective care.
The Baptist Cancer Center represents the Mid-South’s first adult, integrated, academic cancer program. Under the guidance of our region’s oncologists, Baptist developed a flagship cancer center in Memphis while recruiting nationally recognized physicians to our area. The Baptist Cancer Center is committed to providing Mid-South physicians, cancer patients and their families with the assurance and confidence that compassionate, advanced care is nearby.
Services and technologies offered at various hospitals and clinics throughout the Baptist system. CyberKnife® is the world’s first robotic radiosurgery system, a non-invasive radiation treatment that effectively pinpoints cancerous and noncancerous tumors. This surgical device can be used to treat cancers of the prostate, lung, brain, spine, liver, pancreas and kidney. Despite the device’s name, the treatment does not involve actual surgery. There is no cutting involved; instead, a robot using sophisticated software delivers high-dose beams of radiation to destroy tumors.
