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.

Concerned, I'm not impress with the money racket that Riser Medical and now my wife is seen under Ochsner Health (2021) trying to make as much money we can other than customer's health! In my opinion, Dr. Riser seen me three years ago after being with him probalily for more than 10 years being retired from the military, he didn't care for me or my concerns, and come back in six months for a follow up. I will testify this statement is true and under oath.

Filthy clinic. I am appalled that this place isn't shut down. Not to mention dated worn out decor. Paint is cheap people! Unprofessional children running this place. Unfriendly and untrained. Ugh
