Dr McMyne and his staff are like a well oiled machine. The cohesiveness of the staff is a rare find…read morein the medical community these days. Check-in is a breeze, wait times are short, you're greeted with warmth and feel welcomed. The facility is clean, prepping for procedures is a pleasant experience by staff who's actions reflect a caring attitude. During the procedure (back injections) I never once felt anxious. The IV was placed on the first try each set of injections I've received. I have had bad reactions to opiods. Taking this into account I'm given medication that suits my needs. Dr McMyne couldn't be more pleasant while obtaining the information he needed to effectively perform the procedure. Every encounter with this office/staff has been the epitome of what every medical encounter would be in a perfect world. As a former medical professional, my opinion reflects the standards that I was held to and this if my subordinates. Excellent work Dr McMyne & Staff!

Dr Tong is amazing. She's super thorough and always very kind…read more Her staff is usually friendly and helpful. But they must be feeling the stress of the pandemic. The past few calls, the person answering has been very quick to hang up and not helpful. As if I am a bother. Honestly, should not be working at a doctor's office if you can't be patient towards patients. I'm not sure if the office is closed or not, but the receptionist told me the doors to the office are currently locked.

Keep in mind that not every patient can be seen in a little window of time. As with anything, a little empathy and patience goes a long way. Her staff has changed a little within the past year, but Courtney and the new medical assistant I met are very friendly and capable. Courtney even called to remind me of my appointment time after I had to call her because I forgot to write it down; how thoughtful!

This review is way after the birth of my daughter, but better late than never! I am so thankful…read morethat my friend recommended Dr. Stewart to me. I had given birth to my older daughter in Oklahoma, and that experience traumatized me because they were so awful. I was a number-nothing more. So, needless to say, when I went in for the first time to see Dr. Stewart I was bracing for the worst. I didn't even have insurance yet, so I was stressing about that too. Well, she made me feel right at home and even worked with me on my payments until my insurance did kick in. She is so laid back and I felt like I could ask her anything. It's already awkward enough (ladies-you know what I'm talking about) for some of the visits, but she was so cool. She is kind and thoughtful and if I'm ever crazy enough to have a baby #3 I know where I'm going without a doubt!!

When I moved back home to NOLA four years ago I wanted a family doctor that was fairly young who…read morewould keep up with the advancements in medicine and treat me with a multi-culturally competent way (ie. understand the Filipino-American culture or Asian culture in general). Dr. Alex Hoang is Vietnamese-American and fits the bill! I was refered to him because I went to high school with his partner's wife. The office opens early in the morning, they always fit me in whenever I get sick (which considering I now carry an Epi pen is quite often apparently! Jk) and they get back to me ASAP! The staff treats me with dignity and respect and are friendly! My yearly exam includes a heart ultrasound, EKG, breathing test. Etc. and they can do all of this in-house! They have laptops so that your records are now electronically stored. The prescriptions get printed out which is awesome! There are also two parking lots which is convenient. Plus the waiting room is comfy with leather couches, regular chairs, flat screen tvs, magazines , kid toys etc. I would recommend them to all my friends and family! Addendum: as I'm waiting as a walk in patient (my normal doc has the day off so going to see one of the other two docs) I noticed that the bus stop is right in front of the office which might help people who use the bus out here! I also forgot that there is a mini parking lot out front too. In the examining room area on the right hand side there is a larger bathroom with baby changer. I'll post pix later. On the left hand is the smaller bathroom with no baby changer.

No did not do 911 because he is stubborn!! Got checked in, triages and registered in like 30 minutes of arriving. Waited 2 hours, asked how much longer would it be to see the doctor and was told no idea! There were so many a head of him. The guy checking in before my husband was having chest pains and he was still there when we left! An elderly lady had 4 seizures all today and she was still waiting to see a doctor. WHAT DOES THIS HOSPITAL CONSIDER AN EMERGENCY???? DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND STAY AWAY FROM EAST JEFFERSON!! It is the WORST hospital around!!!!
