Dr. Terence C. D’Souza M.D.

I still miss Dr. D´Souza so very much. He was one of my favorite doctors. As a nurse I enjoyed working with him and I enjoyed going to him as a patient. He was just a good soul. I went to him after I had terrible flu vaccine reaction at work. He took his time to help me figure out what was going on. It took a long time but he was persistent and tried to help me navigate the system. He had such a kind heart. I use to bring my mother with me to my doctor visits because she thought he was so nice and caring. We had just seen Dr. D just a week or two before his death. I am still in shock because he looked so happy and healthy. I continue to pray for his family because this is a very difficult time for them. Please know that he is truly, truly missed. I appreciated everything he did for me with my case.

When my mother was in the hospital Terry as we called him, came to visit her and as always he was very kind and spoke hopeful words. He was a great soul and we are so blessed to have known him and his wife Bernie.

I became a patient of Dr. D'Sousa 21 years ago and since he had become a good friend to me. He made it a good thing to see my Dr. I will truly miss this great Dr. and a great friend. Rest in piece my dear friend, i will remember and think of you often. sleep well buddy.

I just found out today of your passing. You were my doctor but more importantly, you were my friend.....

Schenell Louis, your patient care will be miss. Be bless to your heavenly journey.

Awww our hearts are sadden by the passing of Dr.D'Souza. My daddy was a patient at his Laplace office. We will surely miss him...He WAS AWESOME! Rest peacefully in our Father's arms! Prayers for the entire family and to all who was connected to such a great man!

I just read the email from Ochsner. I am truly and completely devastated at the news. Dr. D'Souza had the knack for ALWAYS letting you know he was listening and concerned. He stood head and shoulders ABOVE the many physicians with whom I have had interactions with over the years. My family and I will truly miss him and his wonderful smile greatly. Our sincere and very heartfelt condolences and prayers are extended to his wife and family.

Oh my goodness. Just received email from Ochser. Dr D'Souza was so kind to my wife after her second stroke. We just seen him last month. He was always a pleasure to speak with. Our thoughts and prayers are with him family.

Dr D'Souza was my neurologist for the past 25 years. He always had a smile on his face.I am in shock reading this.He was a great doctor and I will miss him terribly.

There are no words to describe my sadness. Terry was a wonderful person and a joy to know, lo those many years ago when we were all young and working at Charity Hospital. My sincere condolences to Bernie and their children.

I was a patient of Dr. D'Souza for many years. He taught me so much about migraine and how to manage them. He was also there to help me choose the best neurosurgeon after an auto accident. Such a wonderful doctor...always greeting you with his beautiful smile. Dr. D, you will be missed by so many. Thank you for all the years of great care and kindness. Your family are in my prayers.

When I had my yearly visits with Dr. D'Souza I felt like I was taking the time to visit a friend. I never ever ever felt rushed so he could get to the next patient. We talked about our children and grandchildren. I totally trusted him with my healthcare. He was the type of doctor I wanted to give a hug hello instead of a hand shake. I just had my visit 2 weeks ago and I wish I had gone for the hello hug. My deepest sympathy to his family. Carmen Croal

How blessed was I to have Dr. D'Souza as my Doctor since 1984. How devastated has my world become since July 1st. I will never find another dr. as kind and patient as him. My heart is full of grief.

Honorable Judge D'Souza, I'm so sorry for the loss of your husband. After reading his obituary he sounded like a wonderful person and I know that you and your family will miss him dearly but y'all have some beautiful memories of him. I pray that God will give you and your family the strength to get through this.

My condolences and prayers to his wife and family. I'm in shock of his passing. Dr. D'Souza was kind and caring doctor. Made my son and mother feel good. He was my son and mother's neurologist for 5 years. Every visit my mother had with him he would ask her how she was feeling. I would translate for my mom and I always felt he had a lot of knowledge to help my mother with her problem. I as the daughter could always communicate with him. I had just talked to him a few weeks ago about one of my mother's meds. I didn't know it would be the last time I would be talking to him. He was pleasant over the phone and would always tell me to take care. He is now one of our angels. He would be greatly missed. Saying goodbeye for now but not forever.

My husband was one of Dr. D'Souza's patients. I had the privilege of meeting him as well. Such a kind and caring person. May he rest in peace. Condolences to his family.

May you take comfort in the fact that god will make you firm and he will make you strong in your time of sorrow

What a Blessing of a man that God created. He will forever be in your mist. Our love and prayers go out to his loving wife and family. May he continue to heal in Heaven as He did for so many on this earth. I will be forever grateful for his healing touch on my granddaughter. God Bless and Keep You All in perfect Peace.

I am so sorry for your loss. Dr. D'Souza was such a kind man, he was my Mother's doctor and she absolutely loved him. He was so patient with her and always had jokes for her. He will definitely be missed, we saw him, 2 weeks ago. I pray for God to give you strength. May you find comfort in memories you hold in your heart!!

I first met Dr.D'Souza around 1994 when he treated an elderly relative of mine for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. His demeanor was remarkable and left a lasting impression. When I was told that I needed a neurologist in 2002 after an automobile accident, I immediately told everyone that I already knew which neurologist I wanted to treat me (Dr. D'Souza). He has cared for me ever since - 17 years. I will miss him dearly. Because I trust in God, I know that Dr. D'Souza was a blessing to many of us because of his God-given talents. I am so happy that God gave me the opportunity to know him and be blessed with his care. It appears that many blessings have been extended to his family also. May God continue to bless you all.

DrD'Souza was a kind, gentle and caring doctor, he was so patient with my mother whom he dianosed with dementia in 2006..... he was understanding of her condition she would always smile and laugh with Dr.D'Souza.... we saw him in February , he looked great, it was my privilege to have known him.... Dr D'Souza , he is in a deep sleep waiting to be resurrected by Jesus.

To you Bernadette and your lovely family. You know I love you with all my heart and miss you even more. Stay strong in the Lord. My prayers will continue to be with you always.

My condolences to you Judge D'Souza. May the peace of the Lord be with you and your family.

What a beautiful tribute to this man!! Wish I had known him and his family. God bless you all. You were blessed with a wonderful great presence in your lives!!

Dr. Terrence DSouza was my neurologist whom I was referred to by a group of Doctors in Boston. I suffered the same rare disease he did in 2017. I cannot express enough gratitude to Dr. DSouza for his care and compassion the last 2 years. My last visit was January 8th 2919. I remember him distinctly telling me Be thankful you can walk with a cane and you have been able to regain a great portion of your mental faculties . Dr. DSouza was absolutely the greatest support and sponsor to me and my family. My condolences to his wife and children during this difficult time. God Bless you. May you Rest In Paradise Dr. DSouza.. Thank you for being the person and Doctor you were. You touched my life. Gary Williams

I did not know Terry as a physician, but as the spouse of Bernadette, a very special friend. He did always sport such a smile and he radiated kindness. However fleeting life may be, he packed as much as several people might otherwise accomplish, and his ever present love for his wife and family never faltered. New Orleans has now become a less interesting place with his passing. My sincere condolences to Bernadette, his children and relatives in now struggling with the loss of a man who brought so much joy to the lives of so many.

His clinical skills helped me recover from a difficult time. I enjoyed his sense of humor and patient understanding. During our meetings I learned he regretted missing out on the latest developments in neurology such as genetics. I teased him that Oxhnsers system didn't track our contact during a Mardi Gras parade party where I remember him prescribing a gin and tonic. He chuckled and said "but without the gin!"

Terry, as I came to know him through my brother Minoo, was truly a gem of a person. Very humble, simple and a warm person. Always willing to help he was very kind and helpful to us with our mother's problem. Always ready to help and be there when needed. God Bless him and give his family strength to bear this loss. Our prayers are for him to rest in eternal peace.

I'm in shock and total disbelief at the passing of Dr. D'Souza. He was my current neurologist for the last 1.5 years. But, I'm also an ICU nurse and I have had the pleasure of working with Dr D'Souza for many many years. He was so kind and a very personal physician. He would sit and talk with me in his office. He was more like a friend rather than my neurologist. My medical case is very complex but Dr D stood right their beside me. He always kept everything positive and reassuring me that I would some day be able to return to nursing as a Nurse Practitioner. He listened intently to what I had to say. He would ask for my input in my care since he knew I had been a nurse for over 25 years. I'm praying for healing for his family and friends. I know their hearts are shattered at his sudden passing. I will definitely miss him and having to find another neurologist is devastating. He was a good man with a big heart and a wealth of knowledge. I will truly miss you Dr. D.

Dr. Terence D'Souza MD was my very close friend for 32 years. I will miss his kind and gentle demeanor and very forthcoming advice. I extend my deepest condolences and sympathies to the D'Souza immediate and extended families. What a man for all seasons. RIP "Doc". I will surely miss you.
