“I know I’m sleeping better–my hair, my skin, my vision–just different things that you start to notice that we take for granted that are all tied into our blood pressure and blood sugar. I’m a living testimony that it (the program) works! I know for a fact Ochsner Digital Medicine has saved my life.”

“My care team has been really helpful. They’ve explained things to me. They’ve offered me suggestions. I really like the fact of daily accountability. I’ve lost about 103 pounds. I feel better. I have energy that I didn’t have a year ago. Ochsner Digital Medicine to me a lifesaver. It’s given me a new lease on life. It’s given me the opportunity to go and enjoy life better.”
