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.

Do not trust her. LSUHS...please replace her
She is rude, arrogant, does not listen, interrupts constantly and threatens you if you object to her treatment decision. Zero compassion for parents or child. When I said that I wanted to wait for the completion of the brain scan before putting my child on medication, she literally shouted at me 'that's not good enough'. She would not survive in private practice.

Not a good experience!
Did not care for her at all! She offered my child the Covid vaccination after I told her absolutely not. She threatened social services on me and my husband. She also wouldn’t speak to my husband about OUR daughter! It’s his name on our insurance and he’s on paperwork! It’s OUR child? She doesn’t stand by her word… she told me after 2 appts that she would call me back never heard from her again. She also was late to a video appt by 45 minutes and never let me know so I just was on phone waiting. Highly do NOT recommend her!!
