Four years ago, I had a life-threatening GI bleed, and Ochsner University Hospital saved my life. The care I received was exceptional, and the staff were compassionate and attentive. The nurses went above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable and informed throughout my treatment. Over the past few years, the hospital has transformed into a clean, well-organized facility. The staff are friendly, and the level of care is outstanding. I can't express enough gratitude for the life-saving care I received here. This place truly made a difference in my life.~

5 STAR Care Received I went to the UHC ER on yesterday, and was very appreciative of the care I received-from registration, triage, the lab tech, Nurse-Christian, Nurse Practitioner-James A, and check out. I felt like I was being heard and well cared for. I was extremely impressed how the staff spoke to me. They explained the causes and healing process of my diagnosis in a simple manner. I have been in the medical field for over 24 years and have rarely experienced this type of thorough care.i felt like I was being heard and in great hands. Thank you so much for the lasting impression and the 5 star care. Keep doing great things for us.~Lashonda Jeanbatiste
