I need recommendations again for a good ENT. My sinus headaches are finding no relief from decongestants and allergy meds...
Kristin H. replied:
She's not an ENT, but an allergist and immunologist. I've sent countless people to her who couldn't get well (kids and adults) and they loved her (because she finally got them well!). She's basically become my primary doctor because whenever I (or my daughter) go to the doctor, we wind up there two weeks later because we're still sick. I cannot say enough good things about her - Dr. Alishia Quereshi - 985-893-5780. The only problem you might have is getting in right away, but she's worth the wait. The first time I took Taylor to see her she wanted her entire medical history from birth to present and spent almost an hour and a half with us. That was the first time I ever truly felt I got my money's worth from a doctor who spent more than 10 minutes on a patient. Her office is on Hwy 21 in Covington. Good luck!

Asked by a Malacia Mom-
I will be moving Louisiana in a few months and was wondering if anyone knows of a great pediatrician, ENT,...
Vivienne has to see an ENT. Our pediatrician sent us to Dr. Ross at Ochsner on the West Bank. Any recommendations for ENTs on the West Bank? A couple came highly...
Stephanie M. replied:
Dr. Ross is awesome! He did surgery on both Spence Melancon and Seth Melancon . We love him.
Aislinn H. replied:
Great to hear, Stephanie Frisch Melançon ! Appreciate it.
Joyce H. replied:
Dr Long at West Jeff is awesome....
Amy M. replied:
Dr Haggman but he's with Children's. He has been amazing with Ella and all her ear problems. I always look for Dr's who are with Children's bc my kids always seem to land in the hospital at some point or another.
Beverly E. replied:
Dr. Charles Ballay....he is absolutely WONDERFUL & honestly, I wouldn't trust my kids with anyone else at this point. He was AMAZING with Eva-Marie.

Alicia R. replied:
Kimsey Rodriguez is a pediatric ENT at Ochsner. I love her!!!
Susan G. replied:
You didn't ask for an East Bank rec, but I'm sending one anyway - Dr. Richard Spector at Touro (maybe Children's too) is fabulous! Saw me the last time I was in NOLA. Personable, very kid-friendly and honest, and a longtime friend.
Janae C. replied:
Dr Pipen was great when he did Jaci surgery.
Connie D. replied:
Dr Long
Aislinn H. replied:
Robin Roper, she has a hole in her eardrum. She is on drops. ENT was recommended.
Robyn M. replied:
Dr. Ross is good he took Betsey's tonsils out but we now go to Dr. Pipen at WJ. Betsey absolutely LOVES him. He is very persobable, down to earth and honest. She would HIGHLY recomend him. His nurse Stacey is very nice also. They are quick too!
Diane C. replied:
I loved Dr. Butcher at main campus if he is still there.
Tanya C. replied:
Dr Hagmann at children's has my vote. We went to Ross and Goodwin for his first surgery and doctor Hagmann for the next two. Love him.
Joy T. replied:
Have seen Dr Ross numerous occasions..he has always helped me to feel better as well as his partner Dr Goodwin. Hope this helps.
Ada I. replied:
Dr. Irwin/Kimble at West Jeff did both my kids tubes (one had them 2X)... Fantastic care!
Danielle C. replied:
I went to Dr. Ross as a kid and both my kids go to him now. He's awesome.
Jeanie A. replied:
Dr. Hagman did Kylens years ago@Children's. He was great.
Kelly B. replied:
Dr Charles Ballay !!!!
Janine D. replied:
Dr Irwin is the best he did David's tubes n fixes his 4 broken noses when I call the whole office is friendly n know us by first name not to mention he lets the kids play with rhe instruments n teaches them what they r used for
Kim A. replied:
Love him! Dr. Ross is a great doctor and the only Ent I would see!!!!! Highly recommend!
Melissa J. replied:
Ross took my tonsils out at 17. It was fine. I've had speech patients who've used Irwin and Ross and they are who I'd recommend on the Westbank as a professional. As a mother, a professional, (speech therapist) and personally I'd recommend Mike Hagman. He is strictly peds. I prefer surgeries for pediatrics at Children's. I don't think you'll go wrong with Ross though.
Alison W. replied:
Dr Ross was my brothers doc as a kid and my mom loved him.
Jennifer J. replied:
I don't have on one on WB but I have Roth best in mid-city. His name is Dr. Russell Cecola. I highly recommend him because without him I would not be healing from a neurological issue. He caught something when a neurologist, family doctor, and a few ER doctors missed. I can't recommend him enough. Totally worth the drive!
Robyn M. replied:
Dr Pipen is a younger guy and really great.
Marisa R. replied:
Dr Ross did Rusty's tubes in his ears and he removed my tonsils in high school. We've been very happy with him.
{NOLA mom SOS} Our pediatrician is suggesting we see an ENT. Which ENTs would y'all recommend?
Elizabeth C. replied:
Dr Lifsey. Hands down. My whole family goes to him and his partners. They have offices on the north and south shores. His partner is Occhipintj and Cuccinato. But I know I can't spell their names. Lol

Dr. Worley in EJ

Dr. Brousse@ej

Dr Worley at Touro. Does surgeries at Children's. He's awesome.

Dr. Worley. Did my sons tonsillectomy at children's. His office staff is super nice and made the entire experience so easy. I couldn't say enough good things about him. Now my entire family goes to him.
