Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Visiting Dr. Fernando today was a mistake that I will never forget. Not only did he express an obvious passivity for my medical concerns but he also failed to diagnose a serious condition. I scheduled an appointment at the UT Physicians Clinic located on Space Center to see him because he is considered to be a specialist in the area of Otolaryngology. My medical concern was that I had sore tonsils, pain/difficulty swallowing, and swollen lymph nodes. He checked my lymph nodes and throat and didn't express any concern informing me that I may be coming down with a virus. He then proceeded to brief me on the symptoms of the Coronavirus as if that was what I had. I asked him about my swollen lymph nodes and that I'd always thought that indicated an infection. He told me to take some Ibuprofen for the pain and that he didn't find it necessary to prescribe antibiotics. He also said I would have to just let it run its course. I left feeling as if my concern wasn't addressed, embarrassed beca
