We empower patients to choose their care.

At Ochsner Health, we are committed to honesty and transparency. That’s why each eligible doctor or provider’s online profile includes a verified Patient Rating Score, real reviews from their patients, and feedback from trusted third-party sites. With this information, patients can make informed decisions and choose the provider that best fits their individual needs.

Learn More About Patient Verified Ratings

Patient verified ratings and comments come directly from Ochsner patients. Ratings.MD, an objective third-party company, conducts these secure patient surveys by text, email and mail.
A doctor or provider must receive at least 30 patient surveys to earn a Patient Verified Star Rating. This minimum conveys a balanced representation of the patient experience. If there are no star ratings, the doctor or provider hasn’t reached 30. If there are no comments, it would be because no patient has provided one yet.
Verified patient comments are marked with a star and displayed in their entirety whenever possible. We remove private health information and comments that are unrelated to provider care, libelous, derogatory or contain profanity. Comments are removed after appearing for one year.
The Patient Verified Rating scores is an average of each response to doctor- or provider-related questions on the nationally developed Medical Practice survey. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the best score.

Learn More About Third-Party Reviews

Each Ochsner doctor or provider's online profile includes patient reviews from three public sources: Google, Facebook and Yelp.
Because these reviews are publicly available, we are not able to edit these comments in any way.
