Our 4month old baby boy Kal, was diagnosed with Cor Triatrium, a very rare heart defect. For his surgery, our cardiologist at Children’s Hospital in Baton Rouge, highly recommended Dr. Peeler and his team at Ochsner in New Orleans. No words can express how thankful we are to them for saving our baby’s life!!! They were very professional, knowledgeable, patient, organized , sweet and very helpful. The surgery was scheduled within a month. Everything was on time during the process and every 30/45 minutes Missy would inform us how the surgery was going. It ended up being more complicated than expected but Dr. Peeler and his team were able to perform as planned and fix our baby’s heart. Our son was able to recover very quickly under the close supervision of the nurses in the Ochsner PICU. Special thanks to nurse Stephanie for outstanding service and care! Huge THANK YOU to Dr. Peeler , Dr. Kleinmahon, Missy Pecoraro, Stephanie Fried, Kristen Talbot and the entire staff involved with making this surgery successful. Sincerely and gratefully yours, The Ortiz Family.

Very large and easy to get lost as it is more like a hotel/mall than a hospital inside but the staff were very friendly and helpful and Dr. John Sawyer and his secretary Wanda were kick ass people.
