Anderson Regional Health System When you combine advanced medicine with compassionate care, and bring it all to the East Mississippi/West Alabama area, you have created a health care system that benefits everyone.

Anderson Regional Health System does just that.

“In our 89 years of service, we have not only delivered quality care to the sick, we have improved the health and well-being of our population through wellness, education and community initiatives,” said Anderson President & CEO John G. Anderson. “In these days of fast-moving lives, it is good to know your doctor, know your nurse, and know that premier medical care is right at your doorstep.”

And he is right. Anderson Regional Health System offers advanced medicine in more than 35 specialties from the area’s only cancer center and a heart center that has been treating patients for more than 30 years, to a Level III Trauma Center/Emergency Department and the area’s only inpatient pediatric unit with pediatric hospitalists on staff.

Anderson also features the area’s only certified cardiac rehabilitation center, a high tech robotic surgery program, advanced wound care and hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and the Tom C. Maynor Rehabilitation Center, to help people regain their quality of life after a stroke or other injury.

Doctors at Anderson Regional Cancer Center treat cancer patients with the most advanced radiation system available, rivaling systems used at some of the largest cancer treatment centers in the world.

The TomoTherapy System delivers treatments with increased speed and precision while reducing radiation exposure to surrounding healthy tissue - and has recently seen new application in the treatment of prostate cancer.

The Cancer Center also offers the convenience of treatment near home; patients can make daily trips for radiation or to see their medical oncologists without having to navigate busy streets in major metropolitan areas. And there is another local advantage - the Cancer Patient Benevolence Fund, started by the doctors and staff of the cancer center, provides extra assistance to those with needs not met by insurance.

Patients diagnosed with liver cancer have a new treatment option through the Interventional

Radiology program. Radioembolization is sometimes used on liver tumors that are too large for surgery to shrink them to allow surgical removal.

Anderson Regional Heart Center remains at the forefront of cardiac care with the area’s only electrophysiology program to treat heart rhythm disorders. Anderson was also first in the region to offer a protected heart procedure for advanced heart failure patients with coronary artery disease. With the Impella® 2.5, known as the “World’s Smallest Heart Pump,” patients who were determined to be inoperable may now have a treatment option.

Anderson is now offering sleeve gastrectomy, a surgical procedure for weight loss. During gastric sleeve surgery, the stomach is reduced to about 25 percent of its original size. The decrease in stomach size causes patients to feel full sooner, leading to significant long-term weight loss and health improvement.

As the area’s only medically based fitness center, Anderson Health and Fitness Center helps patients safely transition to a healthy, active lifestyle. Our Clinical Integration program partners patients with nurses and outpatient rehabilitation therapists from our Outpatient Rehabilitation Center and personal trainers from the Health and Fitness Center in the appropriate setting to safely make this transition. These professionals are focused on helping patients implement a regular routine of exercise and wellness, providing supervision and education that gradually moves the individual toward an independent regimen.

Throughout the year, Anderson offers community education programs that help people understand heart disease, diabetes, breast health, and more. We also offer hands-on screenings for prostate cancer, skin cancer and oral cancer.

Since 1928, Anderson has been an integral part of this community in the provision of health care and corporate citizenship. Anderson looks forward to continuing that relationship as we work to make this community and region a healthier place to live.

“We truly offer advanced medicine and compassionate care, close to home,” Anderson said.

Dr. Asif Lala and Dr. Ferrell Fort are excited to announce the opening of their new state of the art facility in Meridian. East Mississippi Oral & Facial Surgery will be relocating from our old building to our beautiful new facility at 1212 24th Avenue as of October 1, 2017. This move will allow us to continue to provide our patients with world-class quality of care, now with the newest advancements in the field of Oral Surgery, in an extremely comfortable and modern environment. We will also be able to offer the latest innovative techniques such as in-office CT scanning, ending the need to go elsewhere for higher level imaging of the head and neck region, as well as Electronic Medical Records allowing for digitalized charting and record keeping. This, coupled with the over 40 years of combined experience, sets Drs. Lala and Fort apart from other providers and allows us to provide our unique services to the surrounding East Mississippi and West Alabama communities.

Our doctors’ extensive training in the full scope of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery includes: Extraction of Wisdom Teeth & other surgical extractions; Dental Implants; IV sedation/ General Anesthesia; Facial Trauma; Oral & Facial Pathology; Obstructive Sleep Apnea; TMJ Disorders; Jaw Reconstruction; and Botox Cosmetic. The doctors have full privileges at Anderson Regional Medical Center, Rush Foundation Hospital, The Meridian Surgery Center, and the Specialty Hospital of Meridian.

At East Mississippi Oral & Facial Surgery, Drs. Lala and Fort are fortunate to have the most highly skilled, friendly and comforting staff. They are always prepared to assist you during your visit and readily available to answer any questions you may have. Our front staff is well versed in handling all types of medical and dental insurances, and our surgical assistants are all well trained to handle medical emergencies should they occur. Our team does all of this with a smile on their face and with the utmost respect for our patients.

Our philosophy has always been that our patients’ safety and care are our primary concern. Our entire team of doctors and staff also feel that giving back to the community is a necessity and one that we take with great responsibility. We take pride in sponsoring or being affiliated with many local organizations such as the Mississippi Children’s Museum – Meridian, United Way of East Mississippi, Junior Auxiliary, Batson’s Children Hospital, East Mississippi Cheerleading, Hope Village – Run for Hope, and many local and surrounding schools.
