Husband had outpatient surgery here. It was the best experience we have ever had at any hospital but especially in the New Orleans area. He was alone on crutches the first time that he went for preop paperwork. He didn’t know there was outpatient parking and ended up parking in the parking garage very far away from outpatient surgery. Once he left, one of the sweet staff at the front of outpatient surgery (at check in) walked him all the way back to the parking garage. On his surgery day, the nurses and staff were so sweet, accommodating and understanding. Everything was so clean. They let two adults come with the patient on surgery day. Highly recommend Ochsner Baptist!

Dr. Thomas Krajjowski was so thorough with the care that I was going to have. He explained everything, and he knew my doctors. He assured me of the care presently. He also prepared me for aftercare, which I would do to properly clean my wounds. Thank you so much, Dr. KRAJOWSKI!

I had a scheduled surgery and a two night hospital stay at Ochsner. From pre-admit to discharge I was treated like I was the only patient at the hospital. From the pre-admission clerk, the security guards, housekeeping, food service staff, nurses, students and doctors, I cannot say enough about the level of professionalism they displayed. My nurses, oh how I loved them all! They are like family to me now! I wish I could have taken them all home with me!

I've been a patient since 2013 and the staff, as well as the Nurses and Doctors are top notch. I went through the Functional Restoration Program (FRP) as recommended by my Doctor and have recommended it to several of my friends. I'm disabled and had mobility issues. When I started the FRP, I needed a walker to get around, but halfway through the program, I was able to walk and get around unassisted. If you are having chronic pain, the Pain Management Doctors and Nurses work with you to keep you mobile. They are truly a blessing!

I delivered twins vaginally at Ochsner Baptist. I had an amazing experience, and was supported wholeheartedly by every single nurse and healthcare provider that I experienced. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Brooke Schexnildre, my OB/GYN. My twins went to the NICU, and likewise, I had an amazing experience there as well. Every single nurse was eager to help, extremely knowledgeable, and supportive in all of my wants and needs. Highly recommend this institution.
