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.
Dr Spera was extremely thorough with all aspects of my visit. She was concerned and explained diagnosis and treatment options clearly. She made me very comfortable and I had a good understanding of my problems and the best course of action for my treatment. She didn't talk down to me like I couldn't understand her.
