Our History
Center for Orthopaedics (CFO) was founded in Lake Charles, Louisiana in 1994, but it was the opening of our new office with just four physicians on staff in 2009 that marked a new beginning for CFO and provided the foundation for our current level of growth and expansion.
Today, our practice has grown to serve all of Southwest Louisiana and Southeast Texas and includes doctors in a wide range of specialty areas, several office locations, and a large support staff of physician assistants, nurse specialists, technicians and office personnel.
Our state-of-the-art offices were digitally designed with patient convenience in mind. We’ve created a one-of-a-kind information technology system that fully integrates and enhances every aspect of the patient experience, supporting our commitment to provide care that is patient-centered, not physician-centered. The doctors and the entire staff recognize that their main mission is to serve their patients.
Another important factor in CFO’s growth is our strong and deep connection to this region. All but one of our doctors were born and raised in Louisiana. As a group, they are committed not just to Center for Orthopaedics, but to the community they serve.
