Thank you for taking the time to visit us online. As the Interim CEO, it is my pleasure to welcome you to our facilities, on behalf of our dedicated physicians and healthcare professionals who work together to provide our patients with excellent services. We are committed to providing access to high-quality, patient-centered care that is well-coordinated and conveniently located close to home for our community. Our primary focus is to put the needs of our patients first and to deliver exceptional care that exceeds the national standards for quality, safety, and patient satisfaction.

 As a community-centered hospital, we feel deep pride and commitment to the people who trust our ability to care for them.  Our success at JFL Hospital extends far beyond our walls and facilities. It is deeply rooted in the trust and confidence, you, our community, have placed in us. We are grateful for your continued support, as it drives our commitment to deliver outstanding care and improve the health and well-being of everyone we care for. 

For example, every year, our excellent team of nurses and obstetricians/gynecologists welcomes nearly 400 babies in our labor and delivery department, which includes the territory’s only NICU with board-certified neonatologists on site to care for your precious newborns whenever necessary.

 Our emergency department and trauma program treat more than 12,000 individuals annually.  From abdominal pain to life-altering traumatic cases, our board-certified emergency room physicians lead a team of healthcare professionals, who stand ready to serve 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Additionally, Governor Juan F. Luis Hospital and Medical Center is a designated Breast Imaging Center of Excellence. We strive to be on the leading edge of delivering exceptional care for women through advanced technology such as 3D mammography and one-on-one care with a team of caregivers who truly care about their patients.

 It is a privilege to be a part of the JFL Hospital family. Our exceptional team: doctors, nurses, other medical professionals, and support staff are passionate about providing the best care for our patients and their families. Looking into the future, we continue to focus on implementing high-quality, patient-centered programs to meet the needs of our community.  Thank you for considering the Governor Juan Luis Hospital and Medical Center for your healthcare needs.
