Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Very thorough in the ER. He ran all the appropriate tests and determined the root cause. He gave prompt treatment. Very satisfied

RUDE!
VERY RUDE! Cannot believe STPH would hire such a rude person. Took my husband to ER because he couldn't walk on his right leg. Painful. Impatient when examining my husband and showed frustration. Made my husband feel like he shouldn't be there. I am a little hard of hearing and Coffelt had a mask on. When I asked for him to repeat what was wrong with my husband, his response was, "Are you kidding me? I just explained it!". No compassion or sensitive. Should not e a doctor.

Horrible doctor. Saw him at the St Tammany Emergency in Mandeville after waiting almost 4 hours to be seen. His nurse was rude, but he was ten times worse. I explained my symptoms to him 3 or 4 times because he kept asking as if I was lying, like I wanted to spend my night in the ER. After explaining my symptoms to him numerous times he then asks me “so what made you come here?” He has no bedside manners whatsoever.

Visited the ER and he did not help me at all. Said my tests were “normal” and to call my doctor. Meantime I was in horrible pain. He never came back to my room nor did his nurse. Some other nurse came in and told me to leave. I went to my doctor the next day and ended up in the hospital 2 days later with a bowel blockage. Horrible ER doctor. I could have died.
