The patient a fellow physician, no symptoms at ALL, no personal follow up with patient or family at all after treatment….. the nurse did!!!After 3 months we had a tele visit, and the same very sad!!!!
At 40 years old--a husband and father of four boys--I started having a rare vision condition called palinopsia. An MRI showed a brain mass initially diagnosed as an arachnoid cyst. Dr. Marcus Ware recommended a craniectomy and removal of the cyst. I sought a second opinion from a guy who was lauded as the "top neurosurgeon" in New Orleans, and he acted like surgery would be mad science. My intellect and gut told me to trust Dr. Ware: he had carefully considered the medical evidence and appeared to be more concerned about hel... read more
Great Doctor.
Dr Ware is the ultimate neurosurgeon. He has superb bedside manner. He took time to listen to my concerns and gave explanations that I could understand. I can’t imagine my surgery going any better than it did. He is truly gifted and gave me my life back.
I have a spontaneous spinal csf leak. I went to Dr. Ware for help in finding and fixing the leak. It occurred 11/1/2017. After a long and painful uphill battle with many specialists I found Dr. Ware. I felt a sense of sense of relief after reviewing all of his credentials. Our first appointment was very promising. I followed up with 2 ct myelograms. Not finding the leak either time. I also had a lumbar drain to measure my opening and closing csf pressure. It was also normal. Dr. Ware was incredibly rude to me during my hospi... read more
If you have an inoperable brain tumor, Dr. Ware is not interested in you. He provided no time line, i.e., how long do I have to live, and said radiation was the way to go. Had to press him for side effects. Said his office would get me apptmt quickly. Still waiting.
Dr. Ware was a very attentive surgeon when I first saw him. I had two failed spinal fusions with him. The 1st fusion failed do to the disc cage collapsing. The 2nd fusion he placed larger screws and another disc cage and that caused even more pain. I was unable to walk and the pain was Excruciating! He ordered a spinal cordstimulator that didn’t help.I was told that the manufacturers of the disc cage would be a the surgery and that wasn’t true. He began to distance himself from me. Disappointed
Dr. Ware is comparable with other doctors in his profession however his choice of nurses and his expectations of them seem to be lacking. Don't expect too much from his nurse.
Business response:
Thank you for this review. We're saddened to hear your experience was less than exemplary, and we'd like to have someone reach out to you personally. Please email us at connect@ochsner.org with your contact information so we can pass it along.
My mother broke her neck and saw Dr. Ware. He's very nice and assured us that someone would contact us the next day for her to be fitted for a neckbrace I have made countless telephone calls to his office and spoken with several members of his staff and here four weeks later no help at all. I would never recommend this physician to anyone because the quality of care seems to not be even near the radar of their priorities.
Business response:
We are very concerned to hear about this encounter and truly apologize for your recent experience. Please email connect@ochsner.org with your phone number and the location where you were seen so we can have a patient relations liaison reach out to you personally. Thank you for your time.
