So, I did not check Yelp before booking but only checked the surgeon reviews which were excellent…read more This is one of those big medical practices and bigger is not always better. However, it's not a straight line to surgery and getting there has been chaotic and confusing. This is SOP in Louisiana though which ranks 45th in healthcare for access and quality. I shouldn't be surprised about how challenging this has been but I was glass half full until proven differently. There have been a few positive moments in the run up to surgery, but I'd say 75% of the time it's been chaotic and just really unpleasant. I'll reserve specifics until the surgery is over, but I am definitely having some regrets, which does not feel good this close to the surgery date

I mention this because The VA will send you to an Urgent Care Center first (which happened). The Urgent Care referred me to LOS. A day later LOS calls and the first thing mentioned is "What is your Insurance?" Before even the formalities are out of the way, the scheduler is telling me they will not accept VA payment (or insurance, in their words). Oh sure, I have Tri-care, but "they can't have it". Whatever happened to the Hippocratic Oath? Worry about the money later. Take care of the patient! . LOS called back three days later and I just told them, nevermind. The VA will take care of veterans as obviously LOS won't. "Thank you for your service...NOT!"

I saw the one previous review of Dr. Montgomery and it wasn't review a review for him but rather a…read morecomplaint about a front desk clerk. So with that said, I will give my review. First off, I was an active athlete most of my life which included most high school sports. I was also a semi-professional motorcycle racer and due to that, I probably had a few more broken bones and severe injuries than the average Joe. I'm certainly not creeping up on Evil Kinevil numbers but I have had well over half a dozen surgical orthopedic procedures. First off, Dr. Montgomery is a fantastic orthopedic surgeon of which I know many friends and relatives who have had knee, hip and shoulder surgeries. Nobody I know has ever questioned his ability as a surgeon and about being a dam good one at that. If he has a shortcoming, it would be that some say he doesn't have the best "bed side" empathy but personally I have never had an issue. One thing I will also applaud him for is that he isn't anxious to put patients under the knife and will try therapy, cortisone and time to heal with a conservative approach to medicine. If after a period it isn't healed or is worse and he is confident of the diagnosis then rest assured if you go into surgery he will get you fixed up. If he can't, most likely it will be difficult to find someone who can. His resume includes the Ragin Cajun athletic teams as well as most all of the local high schools which go to him for student injuries. I wouldn't hesitate to send my wife or kids there. I hope you never need an orthopedic doctor but if you do I highly recommend Dr. Montgomery.

A family member highly recommended AP&P so I made the move to try them out.

Every single staff member there would greet me and was attentive and happy! This helped me during my pain journey because it was infectiously encouraging to smile and join in the fun.

I get there this morning and was told that I was scheduled with the PA so I asked if Dr Drew was available. The receptionist called in the nurse who came in with a diary of the number of times she called me down to the second and boy did she reiterate the fact that I didn't answer. From the word go, she starts playing the blame game. I was actually stunned at how she presented me with "receipts " of the 2 attempts she made to contact me. Prior to this appointment I spoke to that office twice and at no time was I told that I would be seeing a PA. It is just so insensitive to just come out swinging blaming a patient It is unfortunate because from the reviews it seems he is probably a good doctor. His staff, namely, his "head" nurse leaves much to be desired. I was disappointed with not being able to see him, but would have probably still saw the PA because I had been suffering for months, waiting for weeks for the appointment, took off work, and driven a considerable distance. But this nurse completely turned me off, just smug with nothing to offer but indifference and "receipts "......down to the second.
