Very professional and definitely took time and assessed my concerns. Grateful to have her as my doctor

Our Response:
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. Our team will be very happy to hear about your great feedback! Have a great day!

The actual services were just fine. However… I had an hour plus long wait before they took me back. I had called an hour earlier before my appointment trying to see if I could come in early. They said no there are no openings so I hung around town for an hour waiting for my appointment. I found out when I got there that they had been an hour plus behind for most of the day. They should have given me an option at that time when I called to reschedule. I was the last person in the building… even the check in clerks were gone. The security locked the door behind me… did I mention the person that drove me there had to sit in the car the whole time because she had no clue this was going on. She too had gotten concerned for my well being.

Our Response:
On behalf of Ochsner Health, we know how important timeliness is, and we would like to hear more about your experience. Please reach out to us at feedback@ochsner.org, so that we can look into this, and improve our customer service.
