Dr Ferdinand is nice but you have to ask him questions to get info on your case. Not very informative.

excellent

Dr. Ferdinand is excellent caring and compassionate. He worked quickly and efficiently. He helped calm my concerns and answered all questions I had about my diagnosis. I could ask for a better Ophthalmologist. I appreciate all he has done to help me.

the best experience from any other eye doctor that I've seen in the past

I will definitely recommend everyone to Dr Ferdinand and Ochsner for their eye care needs!

pleased

extremely friendly

I already sent my cousin to Dr Ferdinand

good

Dr. Ferdinand was a great help with identification and treatment of sight issues.

Dr. Ferdinand and his staff were excellent. Everything about the procedure was explained to me and all my questions were answered.

I noticed a couple of comments on the visit summary via the MyOchsner portal that I do not remember the physician telling me. So not sure if it is me not remembering my visit completely or not.
