Memorial
Medical Center—San Augustine is a fully
accredited 18 bed medical facility that offers
emergency medical care 24 hours a day/7 days a
week. The hospital not only specializes in
emergency care, but it also is home to

care.
The highly skilled physicians, nurses and staff
provide emergency medical care and the most
modern and comprehensive diagnostic program
complete with MRTI, CT, and digital mammography.
