I am absolutely convinced that we have one of the best doctors in the entire universe right here in Jefferson Parish — and her name is Dr. Lauren Nicosia. After recently being diagnosed with COVID at an urgent care facility, I reached out to Dr. Nicosia through myOchsner’s messenger system for us to determine the best course of action for my timely recovery. As the consummate professional that she always is, Dr. Nicosia responded to my questions and assessed the stage of my diagnosis in a timely, yet thorough and efficient manner. She also prescribed medication to me, which resulted in me being asymptomatic after a few days, bringing COVID to its knees. Dr. Nicosia was highly recommended to me by neighbors when I moved to the Westbank after Katrina. Throughout the years I have gotten to know her as a truly gifted doctor and a very kind human being. She truly keeps her commitment to the Hippocratic Oath every second of every hour of every day. I could not ask for a better doctor than Dr. Nicosia any where on this planet or throughout the universe. She is simply the absolute best!!
