EXCELth, Incorporated is a private, non-profit organization established in 1991, with a mission to improve community healthcare access, reduce health disparities, and enhance health outcomes. Governed by a consumer board and funded by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services as a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC), EXCELth initially operated in New Orleans but expanded to include Baton Rouge after Hurricane Katrina to meet the primary care needs of displaced individuals. Today, EXCELth runs three health centers and a family dental center in Orleans Parish, in addition to a behavioral health program in East Baton Rouge Parish, effectively acting as a "medical home" for the community. Our services cover a wide range from pediatrics to geriatric care and include behavioral health, dental, pharmacy, and wellness programs. EXCELth is dedicated to delivering quality, affordable primary care while actively engaging patients and their families in the healthcare process.
