"What I witnessed was not care — it was escalation, labeling, and dismissal. Both visits left me feeling unheard, judged, and shocked at how quickly compassion was replaced with control."

— Promallu (Ochsner LSU Health Shreveport review)

"This place has the worst ER I've ever been in. The nurse was very rude... It took them over an hour to come in there each time we pressed the call button."
