The Baby-Friendly Initiative
The Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative is a global program that was launched by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) in 1991 to encourage and recognize hospitals and birthing centers that offer an optimal level of care for infant feeding and mother/baby bonding.
This initiative follows evidence-based best practices for all moms and babies including encouraging skin-to-skin contact between moms and babies.

Dr. Vineeta Estes is a wonderful, caring and professional gynecologist. She takes time to address any concerns you have. She has an excellent bedside manner and a terrific sense of humor, which helps when you have to “endure” your yearly woman’s exam.. The staff who handles the mammogram department at the Baptist Ochsner Campus are equally compassionate and professional. The facility is clean and the whole process is run very efficiently. I was done with my exam and mammogram within an hour. I highly recommend the Ochsner Baptist Women’s Pavilion for all your female Healhcare needs.

From valet parking , most useful for sick and elderly visitors; to a person in the hallway to direct you. Ochsner Baptist makes a Doctor visit or lab work or Covid shots a breeze. I experienced the comfort of getting all three this month. Checking in is simplified, service is efficient. No long waits.

Waited 35 minutes after appointment time for my room and I was paying to park. My doctor rushed me and didn't offer any services. Basically expected me to know everything wrong with me. Kept attempting to walk out while I was in the room speaking to her. Felt really rushed and not valued.
