Choosing a surgeon in Louisiana
- Check the license with the Louisiana State Board of Medical Examiners. Look up any physician on DocInfo.org.
- Ask how many of your specific procedure the surgeon does each year, and where (hospital or surgery center).
- Ask what non-surgical options were tried first and what recovery and physical therapy look like.
- A second opinion before elective surgery is normal and most plans cover it.
