The staff at the Covington clinic were nice. We waited for over an hour to see Dr. Oubre. Then once he came in he left the exam room twice without even saying he was leaving. Each time he was gone for 15 minutes or more. We then had a follow up at the Hammond office and the staff there were terrible. The RN was an hour late, rushed through explanations, walked us to appointment desk and just left. The staff at the appointment desk never looked up from her screen, scheduled us another appointment then handed us the paper, again without even looking at us. One of thw worst experiences at a doctor's office. We chose another oncologist for mt dad's treatment.

Seemed nice when you could actually get in contact with the man. Other than that, he is pretty useless. Three nights in a hospital where everything was on hold until receiving his word and yet still never took the time to visit. Made promises of coming at certain times and never had the decency of informing us he would not be coming or running late. Only thing he’s been good for is racking up more medical bills.
