Dr Ballard is a Friendly at one time amazing doctor that changed when he makes a mistakes I've know doctor Ballard for years he has treated many friends family and well known people in Union Parish area but the moment he found out my hip surgery had problems his already rude staff would cancel or reschedule my appointment and I received a letter from the hospital saying I'm not longer welcome there if you want to see a doctor's true colors complain and you will see the truth

It was good 👍 he helped me when they told me that I would never be able to do things like before and I didn't give up and he helped me get back to where I could work like before

One of the best doctors I have been to in a long time and I am a very nitpicky old nurse! :) He has the best old school bedside manner and is very knowledgeable. He has helped me tremendously. Thank you Dr. Ballard!

Can’t say enough about Dr. Ballard. My husband saw a doctor in Monroe, and he sent him home to basically deal with his injury for the rest of his life. Dr. Ballard wasn’t scared to dig in and do what needed to be done! He fixed my husband’s knee, and got him back to work. We love Dr. Ballard

I will after October 22nd that's my only initial appointment. I have MRIs x-rays and a full body cat scsn. I've heard mostly good about Dr Ballard, but I don't let others influence me either way, I make my own decisions about my Dr. I need both knees replaced cause I have a whole lot living n walking to do. With my grandbabies. Sorry for your dislike of him. Best wishes shoulder lady.

The platforms we selected are Google, WebMD, Yelp, HealthGrades, Facebook, RateMDs, and Vitals. The analysis algorithm uses the compiled data of average score, recency of reviews, number of reviews, and the sentiment expressed in the written comments.
