Online Reviews
I have been a member of the Main Campus since May of 2015 and just now got over to the Heritage Plaza Campus (which is indeed closer to my home). I have enjoyed the difference in the water classes with the touch of music, meeting new friends and enjoying the club for the past week. I would recommend this to everyone. When I am in the pool, I feel like I am on a Cruise ship with the 3 skylights above and looking out over the clouds. Relaxing and refreshing as well. The instructors are warm and very nice when taking the classes. My trainer from the Main Campus has even transferred over here. Good Luck to all!

Great satellite to the main campus fitness center. Good sized weight lifting area, and a good many treadmills as well. They even managed to fit a small pool and some sauna/steam rooms/hot tubs in as well. Child care is also offered, but the hours are a bit tighter than the Elmwood campus. Still, the staff is very friendly and courteous and seem to go out of their way to help. Love using this facility if I'm short on time to make it to Elmwood's main campus.

I come here quite often for my working out routine, although this place is much better than any other gym in a five mile radius its not quite as nice as the main campus for Elmwood fitness center, its definitely a great satellite branch though. Its got a small pool and plenty of space, weights and options for anyone trying to get a great workout in.

I visit Heritage Plaza at least 3 times a week. The Staff is very friendly and someone always greets me with a Smile when I sign in. On Tuesday evening, 2-4-20, there was a 'Pop-up' wine tasting. I enjoyed that special treat. Protein bar samples were also available. Raymond was our Host. Ochsner Fitness Center at Heritage Plaza is a great facility for my exercise routine. Cynthia S.

The Elmwood Fitness Center is definitely the best fitness center in the area. The facilities are amazing and the staff isalways very helpful. The only downside is the cost, but again what should you expect? I think you definitely get what you pay for at Elmwood!

I had a choice in locations for my physical therapy and JUMPED at the chance to go to Ochsner Clinic Foundation Elmwood location. Not only was the location minutes from my house, but the staff is great. They have good hours and access to the entire facility, if necessary for your therapy. At the end of my PT, I was offered a special deal to sign up for 3 months. Great deal! PROS: You couldn't ask for more features for a physical therapist! CONS:

Nice workout center and atmosphere. Smaller than the Harahan facility but still plenty of exercise equipment, machines, and cardio machines. Newly redone floors in aerobic areas and brand new floors, equipment, and lighting in the class area. I have not frequented the Riding studio but it looks nice when opening the door. It has staffed hours but technically it is 24/7 with your Key card. If no staff is there it means no towels, pool, steam/sauna, hot tub, or shower
