Ochsner Patient Verified Reviews
To obtain patient ratings and comments, we partner with Press Ganey, an independent patient satisfaction company that works with more than 26,000 healthcare organizations to improve the patient experience. These patient verified ratings are based on the “likelihood to recommend” physician scores on the nationally developed Medical Practice Survey. Actual top box results for this question are translated to a 1-5 scale, and the star scores are measured on that scale, with 5 being the best score.
Excellent.
He is FABULOUS.
I felt relaxed and at ease during the consultation with the surgeon.
Better than I could ask for.
Care provider was sensitive to my concerns about risks and explained risks for different approaches. I felt good about his knowledge and concern for my health.
