About Us

Dear Friends:

Welcome to the website of Saint Joseph and Flaget facilities. It is our hope that this site will provide a link for you to connect with patients, find a physician, read about a specific condition or treatment, view the photo of your family's new bundle of joy, or simply learn more about Kentucky's Most Awarded Hospital.

More than 130 years ago, the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth planted strong roots in Lexington and began a ministry of healing that we continue today as a member of Catholic Health Initiatives , one of the largest health care delivery systems in the nation. Fundamentally, we are inspired by the work of our founding sisters and their healing ministry. It's a legacy that we intend to continue on a daily basis.

Our eight facilities, Saint Joseph Berea, Saint Joseph East, Saint Joseph Hospital, Saint Joseph Jessamine, Saint Joseph London, Saint Joseph Martin, Saint Joseph Mount Sterling and Flaget Memorial Hospital provide care to more patients every year than any other hospital in the area. The tremendous work by our employees, physicians and volunteers has garnered countless awards for quality and patient satisfaction. But we do not intend to rest on these laurels.

Thank you for your prayers and support for the last century. We believe that health care is a very personal and local service, and we would not be here without the tremendous support of our community and those we serve.

Sincerely,
Bruce Klockars
President & Chief Executive Officer
