Got 1st shot Moderna at LMCM center at the convention center.

😷 Coronavirus 😷

It was very efficient but it's at the far end of the convention center J. So if taking uber or bus get off nearest the southern most part of convention center. Using Mychart was awesome. Easy to pre check in. I came 1 hr early so its not a problem to come early or late. They just want to get you in and out.

Plan about 30 minutes total once arrived at J.

They had a golf cart driving around to help people get to the spot but it wasnt efficient and there is NO signage.

You come back 30 days after first shot to get second shot so plan that as well.

Good luck friends. 👍👍👍

Edit** when booking appointment you can request as a special need transportation and they will provide an uber code round trip to convention center. They call to confirm.

Got my first shot today at the convention center. I am SO IMPRESSED!!!!! 25 minutes start to finish, including the 15 observation wait time after getting the shot. It was awesomely efficient and everyone was INCREDIBLY friendly.

Kudos, LCMC! Kudos.

Ya that was way easier than expected. They also said it was the busiest day yet and it was smooth sailing!

Confirming this! Everything went smoothly. We were even :30 early for our appointment, and they saw/jabbed us immediately.

'*****' 'A triumph!' 'I can't wait to go again!'
Seriously, thanks to LCMC Health and all who coordinated this. I was in and out in twenty-five minutes. From the guy who booked my appt. by phone, to the parking attendant, everyone was helpful professional and upbeat. Once inside they take your temp., I was asked for my 'code' (but had forgotten to pre check in online, so I might've been able to skip the next step, just sign a few forms on an ipad) and picture i.d. (I don't have a drivers license, my passport i.d. card was fine). I sincerely hope everyone's experience is as easy and hassle free as mine was today. This is how we do it!

I also got mine today! They do have good signage to the parking lot off of calliope, it’s a shame they don’t have it everywhere. Overall, very good and easy experience. See you in four weeks!

We got ours there yesterday. Very efficient operation they put together.

Unfortunately, the side effects of the moderna vaccine are absolutely kicking our asses right now.

Wait what MyChart? I’m familiar with the Ochsner version but does LCMC have its own thing?

Yeah if you have an account you input your lcmc info on mychart and it will load up ready to go. Made everything a breeze.
