About Jessica Gautreaux

Dr. Jessica Gautreaux specializes in Child Neurology at Children's Hospital. She attended medical school and completed her residency training at LSU Health New Orleans. With more than five years of experience in Pediatric Neurology, Dr. Gautreaux is certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology with special qualification in Child Neurology. She also serves as an Assistant Professor of Child Neurology at LSU Health New Orleans. On why she chose Pediatric Neurology as her specialty, Dr. Gautreaux said, "The nervous system is an interesting and complex system about which there is still much to learn, making the field of neurology challenging and likely to evolve throughout my career. I also enjoy the relationships that grow and develop with our patients and families, as many patients with neurological conditions require long-term for care." Dr. Gautreaux sees patients at the main campus of Children's Hospital in Uptown New Orleans, Children's Hospital Outpatient Center of Baton Rouge, Children's Hospital Northshore Center in Covington, Children's Hospital Lafayette Clinic at Burdin Riehl, and Children's Hospital Metairie Center.

    She is phenomenal and listens to concerns and offers lots of help. She is working with my child and myself to try and figure out what is going on. I trust her opinions.

    We appreciate a Doctor Who listens to my daughter any issues that she's been having. We've come in contact with some doctors who deviate from what she says in order to support the treatment they recommend. My daughter was very happy because she listened and explained everything based on my daughter's comments.

    Provider is great and everything but Time . If a New Patient visit should not be scheduled before an Established visit . It's going to go over due to not starting on time . Coming to the visit at the time you're told to come and then not being seen until 20 minutes later is crazy work . Great staff and Provider but have to work on time and I know it's kids so you can not turn away if they are late but if they going to make you late with the other visit it's not right .

    I loved how she listened to me and took her time. There was no rush and I felt welcomed there.
