Dr Broussard is a top notch surgeon. He has performed arthroscopic surgery and eventually a total knee replacement on my left knee; and twice he has performed arthroscopic surgery on my right knee. He runs a very efficient one-doctor medical clinic, so you are never passed on to an intern or less-experienced doctor and you benefit from continuity of seeing the same doctor. His standards are as high as I have ever observed. No need to look further for an orthopedic surgeon!

Horrible bedside manner. Interrupts the entire 2 minutes he is in the room. Would not recommend. Does not explain any results either.

My experience with Dr. Broussard and his staff was great. You see a real doctor and no voice mail to reach his staff. They are prompt and compassionate. I was in and out without waiting. He's my doctor for LIFE.......

I read the reviews after a visit to this doctor. The poor reviews he received, summed up everything I felt when I was there. He was arrogant, irate because I could not remember details of questions I was being asked, and if he called purposely grinding his thumbs in the areas of my body that had pain, an exam, then I pity the patients he has to actually perform a procedure on. When I left there I was in pain, I was emotionally drained and I was humiliated at him undermining my responses to his questions. I am thankful that I will not have to return.

I have been seeing Dr. Broussard on and off since the late 90's. He has always kept my prognosis "real". He has been very polite to my husband, which I don't always find with others. He fixes what ails me in 1-2 visits. I know he will retire and it will be a great loss. He knows my likes and dislikes (I hate casts) and always works around my peculiarities. He's a gem!
