East Jefferson After Hours (EJAH) in Kenner opened in October 2002 under the direction of Dr. Gerry Cvitanovich. This Urgent Care Center was the first of its kind to be established in the community. EJAH provides time-sensitive, cost-effective medical service of the highest quality for a broad spectrum of illnesses and injuries. For those patients who cannot wait for their primary care physician, but do not require ER service, EJAH in Kenner is an excellent option, offering considerable savings of both time and money. The extended hours and broad scope of services provided by EJAH have made it a valuable resource to patients as well as to local physicians. Patients referred to EJAH by their physician are treated appropriately and referred back to that physician for any follow-up. With an impressive track record of providing quality care, EJAH and its affiliates became the first free-standing Urgent Care Centers in Louisiana to be accredited by The Joint Commission in 2009.
