It's been 3 months since your response and I get frustrated every time I read it. Your defense of your office is admirable but highly skued. I have been in and out of several hospitals and and cancer waiting rooms that are well designed and comfortable for the patients. Fortunately we have found somewhere else to go and will no longer visit your clinic. read more

I have breast & mets to my bones. I have been going to Ponchatrain Cancer Center for over a year now. My oncologist is Dr. David Oubre but I mostly see his RN. I've been well satisfied with the treatment I've received there. My cancer is inactive for the first time in over 10 years. read more

Specialties

Dr. David Oubre and the medical team at Pontchartrain Cancer Center specialize in the treatment and prevention of cancer and blood disorders. Medical Oncology is the field of medicine which specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. Cancer is treated in numerous ways: chemotherapy; immunotherapy; surgery; radiation therapy; along with new therapies that are continuously evolving. Our physicians are experts in prescribing and the supervision of chemotherapy and immunotherapy administration. Chemotherapy or biological therapy is defined as any medication which is given either by mouth, injection or intravenously to kill or stop the formation of cancer cells. Hematology is the field of medicine which specializes in blood disorders. These problems include the leukemias, anemias, bleeding disorders, excessive clotting of the blood and others. Each patient is unique in their age, medical history, and family history - all factors that must be taken into consideration when treatment options are explored by your physician. All your questions are important and deserve an answer. Write down your questions and bring them with you to your appointment; we can then gather information that will help you research your disease, learn more about treatment options, assemble nutritional information, and identify reliable resources for current information about the treatment and cure of cancer. We are here to provide you with "The Care You Need and The Compassion You Deserve".

Once upon a time a stage 4 cancer patient made an appointment with this doctor. After the…read moreappointment the doctor said "follow me" so I could be led to the infusion area. I open the door and he had "bolted" off waaaaaaay ahead of me. I didn't know which way to go. I chose a direction. As I hobbled about 25 feet he then came "flying" around the corner. No eye contact was made as he blew by me. Moral of the story; respect stage 4 cancer patients and people in general. Bed side manner is MOST important. Very negative behavior. Trying to let me know that you disapproved of me or something I said? I would be totally ashamed of myself if I treated a stage 4 cancer patient in this manner. Update: This team ended our doctor/ patient relationship with a 45 day notice. He stated that I had disrupted patients and their team during my visit(s). I only had ONE visit. I got along well with other patients e.g. showing a patient and his wife a video of my 19 year old bird playing. I replied with a very detailed email about the negative dynamics that had transpired between me and their team. Oubre was immediately FIRED via this email. Here are a couple of the dynamics I listed. (1) Before my first and ONLY visit with your team I had a few conversations with your bookeeper. During our last conversation she told me what my balance would be for my first visit. She then said "can you pay for it?" I found that to be VERY insulting and inappropriate. No one has ever asked me that. In fact that was some of the info I shared with your staff during my first visit. That definitely was a "deal breaker" as far as patient relations was concerned. I only came to my first appointment because Dr. Oubre was in the area. Where is the logic and tact in asking that question? When the patient comes into your office and they can't pay (before) their visit then they don't get any service. Simple as that. No need to demean the patient. (2) I had to fill out a load of paperwork during my first visit. I told your team that I had already filled out the paperwork. Your team said I had not. Well last week I found the email and documents that I had already filled out last year. I forwarded the original email to your team last week. No one let me know that they received it so I had to inquire about it to get a response. Respond to emails when you receive them. Patients would like to know. (3) When I talked to your staff last she or someone on your team had my next infusion/ Xgeva injection scheduled one month early. LUCKY I CALLED IN TO CHECK ON IT and change it.

We are grateful for the excellent care Dr Oubre provided to us. He took the time to answer all of…read moreour concerns and really put our minds at ease. My wife came out of her scare just fine and we highly recommend Dr Oubre!

This was from the Oompa Loompa receptionist with the personality of two grit sandpaper. My response to this was "I hope y'all are as eager to look at my eye as you are my wallet" Subsequently the rest of the visit was not the most pleasant, the assistant and doctor spent more time typing on the computer than actually providing patient care. The eye pain relief was temporary, about 20 minutes and nothing was dispensed to mimick the effects of the pain relieving eye drops. So I suffered the rest of the day with terrible episodes of pain. Upon departing the office, I perused through two papers which were handed to me, only to discover a hand written sticky note on the second page which stated "this guy was very rude when he came in". Talk about a total lack of self awareness, the receptionists attitude and opening line when I arrived was exactly what she claimed my response to her was - rude. She set the tone of the visit and the staff -thanks to her note - followed suit. I sought a second opinion the next day with a visit to a different doctor. And was treated with empathy and professionalism. I wouldn't return to this Eye Care and Surgery Center muppet fest if I had a fork impaled in my eye.
