Bone and Joint Clinic of Baton Rouge

South Louisiana's Trusted Orthopedic Clinic Since 1948

As the first Baton Rouge orthopedic clinic, founded in 1948, Bone and Joint Clinic of Baton Rouge has served the residents of South Louisiana for over 75 years. Today, we have grown to a family of nearly 200 specialized employees including 17 physician specialists, nine licensed physician assistants, six licensed nurse practitioners, eight physical and occupational therapy specialists, certified orthopedic technicians and registered radiological technologists.


We are proud of our longevity, growth, and success over the past 75 years, but we are most proud of the phenomenal impact we have had on patients all across South Louisiana. Many BJCBR patients have been with the clinic for decades, have seen multiple physicians within the practice, and strongly attest to the life-changing, compassionate care they have received. As we celebrate 75th anniversary, we will be featuring  some of these patients and their inspirational stories here on our website, in our email newsletter, and across our social media channels.
