"It is comforting for patients, like me, to know that the care we need is available right in our community. When you're undergoing treatment, you don't want to travel far from home"
-- Betty Cuddy
Lawrence, MA






A woman's health often takes a back seat to life. Whether caring for a family (husband, children, parents, even grandparents), working, or any of a number of other responsibilities, it’s important that a woman take time out to care for herself, so she may continue to enjoy what life has to offer.


At Holy Family Hospital our priority is to help each woman maximize her health and well-being through all the ages and stages of life. That’s why our primary care physicians, obstetricians/gynecologists, specialists, nursing staff and other health care professionals work together to provide personalized treatment that responds to each woman’s individual needs. After all, Women’s Health is many things – annual checkups, controlling risk factors, experiencing a healthy pregnancy, managing chronic conditions and aging with energy and confidence.

Through each stage of care we strive to provide the appropriate attention and time needed to respond to questions and maintain exceptional communication with a woman, her family and her physician.
