Saw a recent program that showed some type of medical museum. Will be in New Orleans next week and would like to check it out. Any ideas on a name?

It is a New Orleans Pharmacy Museum at New Orleans.

The Pharmacy Museum is located in the very location of the apothecary shop opened in 1823 by Louis J. Dufilho, America's first licensed pharmacist.

Inside the museum is an extensive collection of actual apothecary jars containing the original ingredients used to prepare the medicinal compounds of the day. In addition, there are numerous medical instruments, optical prosthetic devices, eyeglasses of the period, and implements used for procedures.

I have search these information from different sources.
