Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

GOOD LUCK GETTING A CALL BACK
HORRIBLE, OFFICE WON'T RETURN CALLS, THEY JUST DON'T SEEM TO CARE.

Excellent cardiologist. Won't always tell you what you want to hear, but will tell it to you straight (no dilly dallying). So if you're searching for reassurance, look for it in his thoroughness and professionalism. Thank you, Dr. Castine. Would definitely recommend over other cardiologists, especially in the Ochsner system.
