I had problems that I KNEW from my own years of research that were hypermobility related from my teenage years after a fibromyalgia diagnosis at like 19/20 years old. I found the fascia institute on my own and knew I wouldn't be able to afford the initial protocol beforehand - flash forward a few years later - I am getting an actual referral from my neurologist after getting recommendations from my primary care doctor, my dermatologist, my physical therapists, from my allergist/ENT, and other specialists that I had been seeing through Medicaid of all things. I knew this was the place I needed to be. Yeah, they don't take Medicaid (yet, maybe?) but they will superbill you for reimbursement. I was able to crowdfund/ask my friends and fellow musicians for help because they also knew something was wrong and literally dozens of other specialists were writing me off and telling me that my nearly 20 year old childhood fibromyalgia diagnosis (from a top Rush teaching hospital in Chicago none the less) was the cause for my issues rather than doing the work ups that FIT did. I already knew I had the MTHFR mutation, I already knew I had other genetic issues. So I KNEW that I was going to a clinic that could make more sense of wtf was going on instead of being told that my previous diagnosis was a be-all, end-all. Shame on y'all for saying they're a scam and keeping people from asking for help. If you are dealing with a complex situation that has been written off for years - do it. And ask them for the records because I have had no problem so far getting diagnosis codes and files when I need them. Maybe some of y'all need to be advocating for yourself with other specialists or learning about why you are coming here in the first place - there are other options out there if you don't feel like this is worth your bag. This isn't a pill mill or a pain clinic. Believe me, I've been to countless doctors and specialists and been poked and prodded and cried myself to sleep before this - for my Medicaid covered doctors to be referring me to the Fascia Institute and Dr. Courseault was not taken lightly. Those specialists kind of knew already that I would have to pay out of pocket but STILL referred me anyway. Multiple specialists - like I said. (Also: I didn't get a single injection and they even asked me what I could afford to pay for the supplements that I VERY MUCH genetically need before helping me figure out why to start with and how to shop around) Moral of the story - the medical field will ALWAYS be a "practice" and it's up to YOU to come at it with your whole chest if you feel like someone isn't listening or has done you wrong. That's the only way you will get "better" and people will be held accountable - Even yourself. Attached is just one of the segments of official diagnoses that I have even trying to prove for nearly 20 years a being told I was just a woman with anxiety.

Dr. J.Coursault is OK at best. He wants this reputation for being a pioneer and innovator and it's…read moreall a sham. Neither he or anyone in his office knows more about EDS than anything you could just read online. It's a very cookie cutter experience. He's just banking on the the fact that there are no other EDS clinics and no competition to contradict his practices uselessness. He doesn't want to spend more than five minutes of his time with you. Just wants to inject needles into you and expect $500 cash in return. Even if he has an appointment with you just to talk to you for a few minutes and do nothing $500! However, the office manager is ridiculous. I needed a letter for a handicap admission to Museum elevators, etc., and while he was still at Tulane, his staff whipped it up free, no problem, but the second he got his own staff and practice the people running it, nickel and dime for everything and are very unprofessional. When I asked to update the letter this time I was charged $100 for a letter when any other doctor would have just filled out a form for free. They still did it incorrectly, it took weeks for them to get around to it, they did not fill out the form, and would not give me my money back. Plus, no apology for their incompetence. I went to my Primary Care and within five minutes she filled out the form for me and apologized that any doctor's office would be so monetized and unprofessional. There are other EDS doctors and other doctors that offer prolotherapy in New Orleans FIT will lie to your face and tell you that they are the only ones. They are not. It seems like they only care about getting a reputation like Instagram influencers to be famous and make money to work on athletes without compassion for everyday people.

On May 1st, I underwent a urological procedure at the former NSRMC, now Slidell Memorial Hospital…read more(SMH) East, also known as Ochsner. From my initial check-in with Ms. Mickey to the pre-operative care provided by Ms. Regina and the recovery nurse, Ms. Breann, the experience was exceptionally pleasant. The staff made the entire process significantly easier to manage. While I was aware of what to expect during recovery, their efforts to ensure my comfort were truly commendable. Dr. Gurtner is an excellent physician, and I appreciate her straightforward approach to my condition. She ensured I was well-informed about the procedure, although, of course, no preparation can fully account for the postoperative period. The staff at SMH East consistently provides healthcare services of the highest quality. I have been a patient at these two hospitals since the 1970s, and the standard of care has remained consistently excellent, regardless of the name change.

If I could give negative stars I would!…read more I went to the Ochsner Metairie Emergency Room because I had a seizure, and I would rather die on the street or at my desk than ever go back to that location. As soon as they wheeled me in, I couldn't believe what I was seeing. You couldn't even walk through the hallways because they were completely full of stretchers and beds with patients lying in them. Not the waiting room. The hallways. People were bleeding, passed out, sleeping, and waiting for care. It looked like something straight out of The Walking Dead. I've never seen anything like it. I understand emergency rooms get busy. One of the staff members told me they had just received a large influx of patients within the last 30 minutes. I can understand that. What I can't understand is the quality of care. One staff member came to talk to me, and I asked for a cup of ice. She said, "Okay, I'll be right back." I never saw her again. I sat in that exact same spot for over 30 minutes. It's not like I had been moved and she couldn't find me. She simply never came back. Then it was time to draw my blood and start an IV. Before he even touched me, I told him I have rolling veins and that I'm a difficult stick. I specifically asked him not to fish with the needle. I told him that if he had to fish, I'd rather someone else try. He joked, "I ain't got no bait," trying to be funny. Then he proceeded to do exactly what I asked him not to do. He kept fishing around in my vein with the needle. Usually, if my vein rolls, people stop, remove the needle, and try again or get someone else. He didn't. He just kept digging around. After several minutes, I told him to stop because I didn't want him doing it anymore. He kept saying, "If you don't want me to do something, I won't do it," but by that point, the damage was already done. I grabbed my things, called an Uber, and left. I'm not saying every Ochsner facility is like this because I honestly don't know. I'm talking about the Metairie Emergency Room. Between the overcrowded hallways, the lack of communication, and the way I was treated, this was one of the worst healthcare experiences I've ever had. No one seeking emergency care should have to go through what I experienced.

This is a review of the physical therapy/rehab facility and not an individual provider…read more This is an Ochsner owned medical center specializing in inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation as well as physical and occupational therapy. In building B they have a gorgeous new sports medicine rehab/PT room, inpatient rehab and medical offices. They are also currently undergoing further renovations. Most of the occupational therapy is done in a room in the back of the building rather than the fancy new room, but they still have comparable equipment. Building A houses an Ochsner lab (for blood draws), Ochsner Employee Health and medical offices. I go for physical therapy in the sports medicine building and really like it. The therapists are professional, friendly and knowledgable. They have nice new equipment and lots of tables and exercise machines. They employ computerized Epic charting like Ochsner's Main Campus so they always have your information pulled up and remember where you are in the therapy plan each week. I would return to this facility for any further PT/OT or sports rehab in the future without a doubt. Parking is limited in the front of the building, but they have a parking garage as well as lots behind building A and across the street behind building B. Note: this is not an emergency or urgent care facility, you must have a referral or appointment.

I've always had issues with sleeping so I decided to finally get one done and ask my general doctor for a referral. Make sure to give Sleep Rite a call as I didn't receive a call to make my appointment. It wasn't until I tried about two times to get a hold of someone properly was I able to get penciled in. There's a few things to know when preparing for your sleep study here. -Bring a comforter or your blankets (and sheets even) since the ones they provide aren't hotel grade. Definitely more so hospital vibes with the bedding. -There are two bed pillows they provide but I luckily brought my own. This is also key for folks who like to sleep with a few pillows and one in-between their legs for all of my fellow side sleepers. -Can't drink alcohol or caffeine after 12pm the day of your study -Minimal water and no other liquids after 5pm the day of your study -Wear pajamas you don't mind being watched in. They have to monitor you overnight so be conscious of that. You check-in the night of your sleep study at 8pm and are kept overnight until 5pm. They'll run down everything with you and let you know what to expect. For those of us who wake up in the middle of the night to use the restroom, there is medical staff working overnight so simply speak out loud when you need assistance and someone will be there to assist. They have a way to unhook all the wires without having to replace them on your skin. It takes some getting used to sleeping with the wires but you can be on your phone, watch tv, or use your phone until you fall asleep. I'll be going back for my CPAP study since I now have been officially diagnosed with sleep apnea so let's see how that one unfolds.

I'm literally in the hospital right now due to complications from afib which would be helped by a cpap machine but now I'm going to have to start the whole process over again with a different company so I can actually get a cpap machine. The clinic seemed nice enough, the techs were helpful and wonderful but if you actually want or NEED a CpaP machine you should go elsewhere because they make it impossible to actually get one here. I'm hoping and praying my heart holds out long enough for me to go through this whole process again elsewhere so I can get my mask, SEVERE SLEEP APNEA, HEART PROBLEMS.... NO CPAP MACHINE AFTER 2 + MONTHS... unacceptable!!!!
