Respectful and caring
Very thoughtful in my care
She is so serious looking all the time. Sometimes I wonder if she likes her profession or is it just weight loss topics. She seems friendly though. Maybe just an off day or a long week.
Very positive experience
Great

Dr. Dauterive is always a pleasure to be seen by. She is informative, knowledgeable and not only shows that she cares about patients welfare but demonstrates it when going over my personal health care and when offering a path forward that includes my input with her professional opinion. I only wish that there were more Doctors at Oschner that possessed her abilities and patient people skills! I would like to recommend that Dr. Dauterive not only be recognized but rewarded for how she goes above the patient care that I normally receive from other doctors that I've experienced at Oschner.
She was very informative my care.
