When I was 17, I was informed I would need to have a 6+ hour brain surgery to correct an aneurysm. Just getting to this point was an insanely stressful, exhausting, uphill, journey that took many many diagnoses. The most interesting one being cancer. I am thankful to have such a protective and loving mother that tirelessly soaked in information from every source she deemed credible and ultimately led us to Oschner. I am thankful to have my father, without him, this task would have been impossible. All of the appointments, in so many different states, and ultimately, Oschner that was states away from our house. He Drove It All. He was always there. Protecting my mother and I. I am thankful for every single staff member at Oschner that had any part in saving my life. I am now 25 years old, and I can do anything I put my mind to. I think about the world in so many new ways because of this experience. Y’all and my parents are my most influential childhood heroes, and I wanted to let all of you know that I felt protected, informed, and cared for during my pediatric brain operation. Truly, Thank you.

I have been an Ochsner patient for years, but most recently as a transplant patient. My care is and has been exceptional. A team of social workers, nurses, doctors, and lab techs see me regularly. The receptionists in the Transplant Center could not be friendlier. I am 100% confident in the staff, and I would recommend Ochsner to anyone.

Dr David Taylor along with his staff are wonderful polite caring informative, I could go on all day and not say enough nice things about the pulmonary clinic and the doctors and nurses that work there. When I switch doctors on the very first visit they told me more about the disease I have then the pulmonary doctor I've been seeing for the previous 3 years thank you to everybody at the pulmonary clinic.
