I don't have a story to tell; I just enjoy my visits to Dr. Estrada's office. When I walk in, everyone is smiling and very receptive. I get in to see Dr. Estrada immediately. She is always prepared to discuss any issues I may have that day. If it's not her realm, she recommends the right physician to address my problem. I will be a long term patient of Dr. Estrada.

I joined MDVIP a few years ago when I lived in Syracuse, NY. I really liked my MDVIP doctor Erika Hegland a lot. So I was concerned when I moved to New Orleans in 2022 that I would not be able to find another doctor I liked as much. Surprise, I like Dr. Estrada even more. She is simply the best doctor I have ever met. She makes me feel like my health is important to her. She is totally… See more
I woke up very early that morning to make our planes to Sweden to visit our daughter. I realized immediately that I had a UTI and then I began projectile vomiting. I sent a text to Dr. Patty at 6:30 AM. She called me at 6:45 AM and got into action immediately calling the pharmacy and insisting the medications must be ready by 7:00 AM so we could pick them up on the way to the airport. We… See more

Being a survivor of 3 cancers (thyroid, breast, and now 4 years into Lung) drives me to reach out for the positive we can do. It is all about… See more
Dr. Estrada has been my physician for over twenty years. When she moved to MDVIP, there was no hesitation in continuing my care with her. She has always been an attentive doctor caring about the whole patient- not just the physical issue of the moment. I appreciate that my care is primary and that I can rely on the services Dr. Estrada's office provides.
Dr. Estrada is the best! One thing that I love about her is that she really listens to me. For example, if she gives me medicine and I have bad affects from it, she will write it down and never give it to me again. She treats the whole person. I love the way that she never treats me like I'm crazy (even though I think sometimes I am). I know I have been seeing her for over 20 years… See more
