Services
To handle the increasing number of patients, the clinic, grew to 7 physicians, had to move to a larger facility. In 1998 the clinic moved across the street to 4500 10th Street Marrero a 10,000 square foot building. The added space allowed the clinic to develop the Sports Medicine & Rehab Center, which enabled the clinic to provide a full service Physical Therapy Center within the clinic.

I don’t recommend for worker’s compensation. The Doctor seemed to be more concerned with my claim status than ensuring that I healed.

They have free wifi for customers! Not that I was actually a customer when I was using it, but if I ever needed orthopaedic care I would for sure come back here.

The doctors at Westside Orthopedic are great.

I have been to this clinic several times from high school through adulthood.

There are doctors in this practice that specialize in all different types of orthopedic problems and are truly experts in their field.

They have an x-ray in the office so you don't need to go to a lab off site if you need x-rays.

Went in over the Christmas holiday. Dr. Ralph Katz was fantastic, as was all of their staff.
