Our History

April 9, 1950 marked the day for the formal opening for Memorial Hospital (subsequently known as Choctaw Memorial Hospital) in Hugo, Oklahoma. On that day, people from communities state-wide and from around the country participated in an unprecedented event celebrating the earnest and memorable efforts of a community from our past. Because of these people and their commitment, compassion, and dedication, today we continue to celebrate the success of a community hospital which has literally served thousands of people over the past fifty-nine years.
