Top General hospitals in New Orleans, United States

Dr Kilgore is the best

Went to the ER from falling and cutting open my head. Excellent care and evetyone was very nice. No waiting and even had a Cat Scan. A big bang to the end of my trip

Went there after a fall. Nurses, intake staff and x ray techs were incredibly nice and helpful. The actual DRs were nasty, uncommunicative, bullying and downright rude. The DRs also seemed to not communicate to one another because one told me that I had fractured my left hip and another claimed it was the right hip.
I asked about caring for my injury at home. One ( nurse, I think), said that the fracture would " pierce my organs", one said that would be healing " within a few weeks", another said that " I would never walk again".
All of the DRs pressured me to submit to surgery.
None were willing to discuss with me dealing with my injury at home.
One DR suggested that because I had taken 6 Ibuprofen with a glass of wine before coming to Tulane that I was too " intoxicated " to make my own decisions".
Finally they let me go and gave me a pain medicine prescription. Though I asked for something non addictive, when I got home I saw that it was an opioid. Warning included addiction.
So to the DRs at Tulane, I am getting around okay, considering it's been 3 days. For your information, I am guessing the left hip since it's more problematic and I am using ibuprofen, not the opioid prescription that you gave me.
Yay for the nurses and techs. You guys were pleasant, helpful, sympathetic and kind but someone needs to tell the doctors not to be nasty.
I imagine that they have long shifts and a lot to deal with, but each patient is an individual and deserves respect and to be listened to. Also listen to each other, right hip, left hip! Get it together.

My husband had to have emergency surgery. Dr. McGrew was his doctor. All the doctor's and nurse's were great. He received excellent care while in this hospital. We can't thank them all enough.He was on the 6th floor and in SICU.

Last night was the WORST experience I ever had ah Tulane. I been going to Tulane for years and never left unsatisfied like I did yesterday. The nurse who triage me was VERY sarcastic. As I was telling her things. She proceeded to tell me “ What you expect the doctor to do?” And as being in the medical field & taking care of patients it’s some things you say & some things you keep to yourself ! She was VERY unprofessional ! I finally was able to see the doctor after 1 hour and 1/2 and he didn’t listen to anything I saying. I left the ER after being there for 3 hours without any help .

I went at 12am and before I finished my paperwork vitals were taken and I went straight to the back. They check for COVID which I had, gave me ibuprofen release paperwork and I was on my way in about 30mins. Not being from here I felt so sure with the care I received thank you guys for taking good care of me!🫡

Superb!! My mom was flown from Hattiesburg,Ms to Toulane for emergency surgery, the surgical team was very rapid and almost completed the surgery upon our arrival she then went to Surgical ICU and let me tell you these guys are amazing and the surgeons make your to take the time to explain everything and her nurse I wish I had the means to make him her private nurse he was exceptional,patient, understanding and I truly believe he was praying as hard as us and kept contact and made sure my sister understood so she could update our family. Thank you Toulane and a special thank you to SICU nurse Marcus for all that ya'll did for my mother.

Absolutely the WORST experience of my life!!! I had to fly in from Washington state to have my back surgery. The surgeon was awsome. The surgical staff was awsome. The nurses that I had showed me exactly what reverse racism is all about. Im a 55 year old man that was left in a position for two days with no pillow, one sheet, and no meds after major back surgery. To top it off the absolute deniel of a nurse call button or access to a phone. The middle of the second day I flopped onto the floor, after a back fusion, and crawl to the closet where my phone was and was able to call my wife in Washington for help. She called my surgeon directly who immediately sent staff to correct the situation. I literally thought I was going to die in their care! This post makes you put a star, they deserve nothing!

My experience with Tulane Health System was GREAT and DISHEARTENING. My Mother Reganer A. Edwards was transferred to Tulane from Ochsner for an ISCHEMIC STROKE. Thanks to the awesome STROKE TEAM and awesome ICU TEAM. Now where I had issues with THS. First the cafeteria. I was served and sold “SPECIAL EGGS”. Yes they were very SPECIAL. Thirty minutes after digesting “SPECIAL EGGS” I became VIOLENTLY ill. I thought I was in need of emergency assistance it was so bad. So for about 90 minutes I was unable to be there for my Mother. Second your environmental services are totally HORRIBLE!!! The housekeeper came in changed the trash can liner and said have a nice day. As you will see this was the room my Mother was in. NASTY!! And what was that coming to the ceiling?? The AC unit’s temperature could not be controlled and it made this unbearable noise. As you see a blanket had to placed over it so my Mother wouldn’t feel like she was freezing. And the nursing staff on the 5th floor weren’t very nice. And to add insult to injury, I am having trouble getting assistance with the medicine my Mother needs. I called for assistance and I am getting the run around. Still waiting for a return phone call and my Mother really needs this medicine like yesterday. I am a health care provider and for me this is unreal. I am hoping and praying that I nor anyone I know has to ever stay in your facility or needs assistance after a stay in your facility.

Thank God I found you

Security guard so rude.

Had serious sinus infection with headache, nausea, and dizziness. Felt like someone was stabbing me between the eyes with an ice pick. It was at 5:30 on a Sunday morning so I had no where else to go. All they did was sit me in a room and forget about me except for every now and again someone would look in at me like I was some kind of new wierd zoo attraction.

Very helpful..
