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.
He did a very good job including me in the process. He was also excellent in treating me.
I was well satisfied!
Best doctor I have been to in my 68 years.
I will keep this doctor as my doctor.
I always recommend Dr.Awad to my family and friends. I know they would be in good hands!!
I can't say enough about Dr. Amer M. Awad. He's the best neurologist that I've ever dealt with. He answered all of my questions and provided solutions that other neurologists ever mentioned. I hope Dr. Awad never leaves Ochsner's! I don't to visit another neurologist.
Excellent overall experience
Was sooo glad to see Dr Awad
I will not see anyone different for neurology ever again. I have had headaches my entire life and seen by numerous neurologists over the years. He is by far the best and most caring.
All possible procedures and medications were discussed with me and we decided on a plan forward.
Would recommend Dr. Awad to everybody who needs this type of care.
Very pleased with Dr. Awad.
This was the best experience that I have ever had in a doctor visit. He was very attentive, patient, thorough, and have me full confidence that he will be able to find my medical issue.
Doctor listened and explained things carefully and easily to be understood.
I trust my care in Dr. Awad's hands. He tries his best to personally always see me as he's still trying to get to my root causes and explanations. He listens well and directs his staff to give the best care to his patients.
Phenomenal
Dr. Awad was phenomenal. I do not have enough wonderful things to say about how intelligent, inquisitive, and thoughtful he was during our consultation.
He gave me options & explained each option.
