The care I receive from Baptist (st. Claude and Sanchez), is some of the best in my entire life- not just for a “low cost”healthcare option. All the providers and staff I’ve been seen by have been top notch (shoutout Dr. white and Haley Williams). I’ve been offered so much help in navigating my health issues, and leave my appointments feeling much better.

I’ve seen doctors both internationally and across the US and the clinicians here are exceptional. They are well-researched and will spend time with you to actually discern what you need. For me, knowing my doctor actually cares about me makes a world of difference. You won’t get this heart anywhere else in Nola.

Very disorganized. Waited for 30 minutes, and I was the only person in the lobby. After paying for my appointment the MA told me that I would have to get blood work drawn. I asked “why” bloodwork was necessary for an ear infection?! She told me it is required for all new patients. As a nurse I have never heard of a requirement to check my blood counts and electrolytes for an ear infection. (Normal VS) I asked her to double check before I met with the provider. She did not and I waited longer. I asked again and she said she didn’t check, so I left. I also have never been to a doctor’s office that cannot verify insurance information from Blue Cross which is why I paid $140 from my account. Then she said I would have to come back another time for a bill so that I could send it in for reimbursement. So now I have spent $140, still have a horrible pain in my ear, and I have to find a provider that won’t make me take bloodwork for ear drops.

This is a horrible clinic. The staff are extremely rude and even hung up on me. I also got told my appt time and when I called to confirm they told me it was too late and that my appt was at a different time than I was told. Than they tried to have me reschedule for nearly a month out. They are horrible people and I would avoid this place at all cost. They completely lack decent customer service. The lady's name was Keshawna. Avoid her at all cost.

I've been a patient here since they opened back in 2014 and have always had a great experience. They actually care about people. It's obvious. And the quality of care is good, too. The last time I went in just for a check-up, Dr. Wirfs noticed a dangerous condition that runs in my family but no one else ever noticed. She also sat with me for about 30 minutes to go through my blood results line by line to make sure I understood them. They pray for me whenever I go. This clinic is all-around good.
