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.

The entire ordeal with Ochsner is always a bad one. I do not recommend Ochsner medical system. I can never get in touch with my Dr office. AND the pharmacy cannot ever get in touch with my Dr office. I do not recommend Ochsner.

Dr Johnson is an excellent Neurologist. She really listens to the Patient. She is knowledgeable in dealing with neuro-muscular diseases and treatments. I have seen numerous Neurologists over the years for my condition, and she is at the Top. She always has a positive attitude which helps me to deal with a chronic, sometimes debilitating disease.

waited to see a specialist for 6 months so they can further test and find out why I have had these tension headaches. I was expecting with this field for a doctor to actually want to see why I was having this issue. Not the doctor I got that just gave me a prescription that my family doctor could have given me. I had no test to look for pinched nerve problems to nothing. All I walked out with is a prescription to try to make me sleep better I was told. The prescription is used as a sedative and

My husband was seen by Dr Johnson and we were impressed from the start of the visit. I brought extensive medical records which she reviewed prior to his exam that morning. While examining him she listened intently and typed in our answers to her questions. When his exam was complete, she informed us of her duagnosis findings and explained how and why she made that diagnosis, then ptovided us with care options. She also patiently answered our questions. I highly recommend Dr. Kristin Johnson
