When you're at St. Luke's, you're family
Our mission is to provide you with a level of healthcare we want our own loved ones to receive. This mission guides everything we do, from our extensive amenities, to the staff and volunteers who can help you with your special needs.
If you need help getting to your hospital destination, our guest relations staff can personally escort you. Escorts are available at the check-in near the west lobby. Also feel free to ask a St. Luke's associate for help in finding your way. Information desks are located in the West Entrance lobby and the A Avenue lobby.
