    it's rare that you walk out of a hospital (OLOL) after a procedure and high five your partner,…read more but that's what happened. We feel very blessed to have had such exceptional service with Dr Balart and the team at OLOL, I knew going to a community based facility (BR Clinic) was the best decision we could've made, you're a person and not a number.

    So this is all over the place BUT ... my old GE retired and I had to find a new one. I checked on…read moreseveral that I knew of and they weren't taking new patients until 2020 -also I looked around for reviews for someone substantially younger than me but in practice more than 2 years. It took almost 5 months to get in. Dr. McDreamy is very personable, has a great sense of humor and his office was running on time. We scheduled my procedures at the "ButtPalace" on Jefferson and I will update after. It sounds like I'm being ageist but when you are in your 20s or 30s, all your doctors are older than you- and if you have a good rapport with them you stay with them until they die or retire. If that happens in your 40s or 50s it's not a big deal. If it happens in your 60s, it's a whole different ball game. I have, at 66 outlived and/or retired 2 dentists, a gyn, 2 gps, an optometrist, an ophthalmologist and a gastro. Baton Rouge Clinic published a 2 page spread with all their doctors. Yesterday I went through the list and crossed out everyone I knew I wouldn't need- pediatrists, hospital medicine, psychiatrists, etc. If you are looking for a doctor who will outlive you- it was a great resource. I used this to also find a new GP and dermatologist. Dr. Balart has great references, though hopefully, I won't have to see him again after this. I don't think my rectum will appreciate his incredibly good looks. Update: my procedures went well. Even though I arrived 15 minutes early, like they ask, It was an additional 45 minutes before they took me in. I was actually heavily sedated and had a local, because I'm hard to wake up from the "good" short time drugs like Verset & the Michael Jackson drug. I got to watch the whole thing with a tube in my throat to my esophagus. It was a 45 minute procedure like the doctor estimated. Yes, I felt (severe discomfort as polyps were .... I don't know because I felt the pull and closed my eyes,) some of it, but when It didn't hurt it was so cool because he explained everything he was doing as I watched. Thankfully, all my results came back negative, this time. I would definitely recommend Dr. Balart & Baron Rouge clinic as a whole, although I can't say what it's like in the age of corona. I have an appointment again in 2 weeks. If they make me wait in my car Im bailing until the world comes to its senses.
