Since starting MDVIP care in Baton Rouge with Louis Minsky, I'm in much better health than prior to that. My family members have been fairly short-lived, but I feel absolutely able to do great things for a long time to come.

Testimonials from patients of Dr. Minsky
On a Friday morning, I woke with pain in my right hip area (which I had a replacement about 2 years earlier) and across my back waist area making it very uncomfortable to walk. It being a Friday and most doctor offices are closed at noon, to get an appoint with my hip surgeon would be almost not happening. I contacted Dr. Minsky, shared my concern of not getting an appointment with my surgeon… See more
Dr. Louis Minsky has been my PCP for ~10-12 years, even before he began his MDVIP practice. He has always, without exception provided world class exceptional, professional care balanced perfectly with extraordinary compassion, understanding and listening. MDVIP has allowed him to shine in ways he was unable in his previous practice. I recently experienced a life threatening hospitalization… See more
We have known Dr Minskey since he first moved to Baton Rouge many years ago. When he told us of his association with MDVIP we decided to move with him. He has always been attentive to our needs and addresses them quickly. Sometimes he knows our needs better than we do! He listens, but knows us well enough after all these years to see what the real issues are. My husband Jim has been ill… See more

There is not enough room or time to mention all Louis
Minsky has done for my family and for me. He is like part of our family and has been with us through the good times and
the tougher times. He is only a phone call away and has even come to our house on several occasions. We all feel protected and blessed. Thank you Dr. Minsky.
Since signing up with Louis Minsky and MDVIP over 8 years ago, I ‘ve grown to know and respect Louis as a physician, as a fraternity brother, and as a fellow Tiger. We share outdoor interests and a love for LSU. We both volunteer for the LSU Alumni Association, where Louis was named 2022 Alumnus of the Year. As Chief Medical Officer, he guided Baton Rouge General and my family through COVID… See more
Doctor Louis Minsky is one of a kind. He always responds almost immediately when contacted, even when out of town for a funeral and his dad’s birthday. He truly cares deeply about his patients. I was so touched when he called the day of my daughter’s funeral to tell me why he wasn’t there. I consider him a dear friend and would recommend him highly!

He always follows up on surgeries and illnesses. He was… See more
