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.

I HIGHLY recommend him! We had a health scare with my momma. He was so very patient and kind!! Super personable and an all around joy! You will not be disappointed if you choose Dr. Fernando! We were so blessed to have him as my moms doctor. Would also like to add that his nurse is fantastic! His ultrasound tech was amazing! The entire experience in their office is hands down the best care our family has ever received!

Dr. Fernando has been managing my care for a few years now. He listens very well and provides me with great care. My follow up appointment today was to review how well I was doing with a new medication and I was able to do the appointment over the phone with audio & video (which was excellent since I live an hour away).

After years of struggling with PCOS, near-constant bleeding, painful cramping, adverse effects from birth control, and feeling unheard by docs, I finally found Dr. Fernando, who actually listened to me & tackled my issues with a methodical, kind & swift approach. Insurance won't cover hysterectomies due to PCOC. Other physicians would blame all my ailments on that sole diagnosis & refused me the procedure. Had they been as thorough as Dr. Fernando, they would have discovered additional reasons for a hysterectomy, all of them covered by insurance. I am now 7 weeks free from the prison that was my uterus, and I am healing up wonderfully. Dr. Fernando has been kind & professional every step, & his work seems impeccable. My scars look great, & I feel good & hopeful for a healthier future.

Dr Fernando is the best physician that I have had. I recommend him to everyone in need of care. He gives me his full attention, feedback, and care. He is intelligent and very knowledgeable, and cares about each of his patients. Never once did I feel uncomfortable while in his care. He talked me through the birth of my daughter which made me able to relax and enjoy the moment. I 100% recommend Dr Fernando as mine and anyone else’ physician.

Looking at my daughter’s newborn pictures again reminded me of how awesome her birth experience was, this was in large part thanks to Dr. Fernando. He is a caring physician who takes the time to listen and get to know you. He is very skilled at his work but just as equally important, has a warm nature about him that puts you at ease and even makes you look forward to having a doctors appt! After having an appt with him during my first pregnancy when my previous OB was out of office I felt so much more comfortable with him I wanted to switch right then and there. My second delivery was SO much better due to his guidance and recommendations before and during. I always recommend him to all my friends!

Dr. Fernando, the nurses and his staff at the clinic as well as the nurses and staff at the hospital were all so kind and caring from my first exam to the after care of surgery and everything in between. I could not ask for better care. I would recommend to any one.

Dr. Fernando is a very kind and caring physician who gives you his complete attention and never makes you feel as if he has something more important to do. He explains his diagnosis and proposed treatment thoroughly without talking down to you. He respects his patients, he treats them as individuals, and he always follows through. In short, he is the very best.

Dr Fernando has been the best doctor I’ve had in years. His care and compassion has been well over above and beyond. He has made sure that my husband and I have understood every part of my diagnosis, treatment, and care. I absolutely recommend doctor Fernando to anyone. My hospital stay was as well the best care I have ever had. The staff was outstanding and made my recovery their number one priority. My favorite nurse was brittney. She was my intake nurse and she made sure I was comfortable.

In all my years of doctors from female check ups to having babies, and now hysterectomy have I met a doctor like Dr Fernando. First visit to the most recent Sept 2018-Jan 2019 he has made me feel comfortable and his concerns go beyond expectations. I would travel from anywhere in the United States if I am in need of a gynecologist. I would refer my family and friends for sure. Thank you for taking care of me Dr. Fernando. Very satisfied patient. I live in Texas, working in Oklahoma at the time

Dr. Fernando is an excellent ob/gyn! I started seeing him when I was trying to get pregnant in late 2016 and he delivered our first born in late 2017. He is a very knowledgeable and trustworthy Doctor. I had pre eclampsia and was induced on a Friday when Dr. Fernando was supposed to be off call. He came in and delivered our daughter via c-section. Our experience with Stillwater medical center and Stillwater women’s clinic was excellent and my care throughout my pregnancy was top notch.

If you are looking for a Dr. who listens to all your concerns and makes you feel comfortable at each visit then I recommend Dr. Fernando! I went in at 36 Weeks after making a late switch and thankfully he was able to see me for the remainder of my pregnancy. My first delivery was a disaster that scarred me! My second delivery went amazing because of him! Him and my nurse Sally literally turned my fear into optimism! I want to thank them both for making this such a beautiful experience for me.

Dr. Fernando is truly one of the best doctors I’ve seen. He’s always willing to listen, explain procedures and methods in a way that isn’t belittling (tough to find in Oklahoma!), and he is always quick to get back to me if I have a particular question or issue. It might sound crazy, but I don’t dread appointments like I used to—all thanks to Dr. Fernando and his wonderful staff.

Dr. Fernando is an excellent doctor. I went to him to have my IUD replaced. I was very fearful of the process and how painful it would be for me. He was great at trying to calm me and did the procedure as painlessly as possible. I went back a month later for a checkup, and all was great. I would definitely recommend Dr. Fernando to those looking for an OBGYN.
