'Nearby and affordable': Drew Brees Ochsner clinic opens in medical care desert in Baton Rouge

The Rev. Kenneth McKnight, of the GFL Cathedral Church of God in Christ, said he hopes a new medical center in Howell Place will encourage his congregation to stay healthy. "We serve a predominantly Black population and people of color are often looking for services that are nearby and affordable, with this facility opening it's a win-win for us," McKnight said. "It's only a stone's throw away."
