A Department of Ochsner Medical Center
Lieselotte Tansey Breast Center at Ochsner was established to provide a multi-disciplinary approach to the detection and treatment of breast disease in a serene and beautiful environment. The Center is committed to providing women who experience breast problems with a swift diagnosis in a state-of-the-art facility staffed by a concerned, understanding and compassionate team of breast care specialists.
We are excited to announce that the Lieselotte Tansey Breast Center at Ochsner has relocated to a new building located at:
The Gayle and Tom Benson Cancer Center
1514 Jefferson Hwy.
New Orleans, LA 70121
Monday-Friday 7:30 AM to 5 PM
The Breast Center Team is comprised of compassionate and caring individuals who understand and acknowledge the concerns, anxieties and fears that many women experience when faced with the possibility of breast cancer. Fellowship trained surgical oncologists and radiologists that specialize in the evaluation and management of breast disease work together in the same facility. A surgeon, medical oncologist and radiation oncologist make up each treatment team, who develop the treatment course that best meets the needs of each patient. By working in close proximity, the Breast Center fosters synergy and efficiency that is unachievable in any other setting.
The Tansey Breast Center provides the highest quality breast screening services through risk assessment, early cancer evaluation, advanced imaging techniques and biopsy procedures, many of which can be done on an outpatient basis. More than 30,000 screenings and diagnostic mammogram studies are conducted annually, along with 8,000 biopsies. Moreover, the Tansey Breast Center is re-accredited by the National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers, a quality program of the American College of Surgeons.
Our team is actively involved in breast cancer research, helping to develop new and more effective methods of preventing, diagnosing and treating breast disease. The Center has become a leader in breast cancer research in the Gulf South and has participated in studies on both the prevention of and the treatment of breast cancer. Past research has had far-reaching positive effects on breast cancer treatment, and studies underway offer the promise of even greater changes.
The Lieselotte Tansey Breast Center at Ochsner has again been granted a three year full accreditation designation by the National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers (NAPBC), a program administered by the American College of Surgeons. Accreditation by the NAPBC is only given to those centers that have voluntarily committed to provide the highest level of quality breast care and that undergo a rigorous evaluation process and review of their performance. The Tansey Breast Center is the only breast cancer program in New Orleans accredited by the NAPBC.
The Breast Center was named after Mrs. Lieselotte Tansey, a breast cancer survivor and Ochsner patient whose generosity made the Breast Center a reality. Mrs. Tansey resided in Germany and came to Ochsner for her healthcare. She realized the value of having a place where women can get a swift diagnosis and treatment for breast cancer in a pleasant environment. It is because of her support that we are able to fulfill the mission of the Breast Center.

I have been under the care of Dr. Amy Rivere since June 2020 along with Dr. John Cole my Oncologist. The two of them have continuously worked together guiding me through my treatment plan and surgery for breast cancer. I can not say enough good things about both of them . The care I have received through them and their staff has been excellent ! I highly recommend Ochsner Liesolette Tansey Breast Center.

This was my first visit to the Lieselotte Tansey Breast Center. I am in the next phase of my treatment which is radiation. I met with Dr. Angela Wortham. She was wonderful - very compassionate and made me feel as if I were her only patient. I left feeling confident and informed about what will happen next. On a side note, I loved that I was able to wear a “real” robe instead of a paper disposable one !

I am leaving this review to inform anyone who is looking for great Doctors and staff for your breast care needs to choose this facility. The Doctors and staff are friendly, organized, and genuinely care about you and your needs. They answered all of my questions at my appointments and made sure I understood everything. When I left messages on the portal the response time was less than 24 hours. I did not have a long wait on scheduled appointments or surgeries. The hospital staff and pharmacy where great as well. They where also informative and handled everything in a timely manner. I was very impressed with the care I received and highly recommend Gayle and Tom Benson Cancer Center Tansey Breast Center Ochsners New Orleans. Thank you so much to each and everyone of you that cared for me. May God bless you all to continue the great work that you do. Sincerely, Jennifer Manard

I scheduled an appointment today and was a bit frustrated as the information was not submitted as I had hoped it would have been when I faxed over my mammogram orders. I was fortunate to have Tyanna answer the phone and make my appointment. She was so kind and in no way ever returned my frustrated attitude that I was giving her. The situation was in no way her fault and I was somewhat venting to her about it. This 5 star review is for her only as I have not had very good experiences with Ochsner in the past. Hopefully, this is a new start! Tyanna is what true customer service is all about.
