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.

Do you want a doctor who listens to you?
Dr. Fernandez listened to all of my concerns and responded to ALL of them. She asked pertinent questions and gave me great advice! She had read the results of my X-rays before seeing me, which gave me the opportunity to discuss them with her. I left feeling that all my concerns were addressed!

Amazing Doctor
Dr Fernandez is amazing! Her bedside manner is great, her energy is calming, she is this type of doctor who will sit with you, will not rush you. She will explain everything. I felt like I was talking to a friend. She is very knowledgeable with many years of experience. She did my lumpectomy and referred me to Dr. Grace who did his part after my breast surgery. I recovered very quickly without any problems. Highly recommend Dr. Fernandez!

A caring surgeon
Dr. Fernandez performed my lumpectomy in 2020. She has been continuing my follow up care since then, never having me see a different doctor in the practice. She always spends time checking up on me and what is happening with me and my health. She truly cares.

Excellent doctor, she took extra time to answer all my questions and concerns. Surgery went well and as expected. I appreciated her calling me personally with my biopsy results which were good. Office staff was great in assisting me get my paperwork completed for disability.

This is one of the best experiences I've ever had with any doctor. She very caring and will spend hours explaining things to you. She will listen to your concerns and address them immediately. If you want the best, you've found her. My daughter will be seeing her now and is so happy to have her.
