I have been seeing Dr. Ambi-Samra since 2011 and followed him to Baton Rouge when Oschner transferred him. It's a longer ride from my home in Mississippi and worth it.Today something reminded me how lucky I am to have this doctor. He is caring, professional, and very intelligent. Listens and answers all questions.Thank you Dr.Ambi-Samra Sharon Settle
