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.

Him and yhe office and NP. Were very nice and professional.

Did not see Herman.
I did not see Dr. Herman. His nurse attended, unfortunately. I had questions. Additionally, x-rays for thumb injections seemed overkill.

Very personable and knowledgeable
I was checked in quickly and shortly thereafter was called to be seen. The radiologist was fantastic in explaining how to hold my hand. The nursing staff was very pleasant and efficient. When I met with Dr. Herman, he asked very poignant questions and took me through an evaluation test. His steps were helpful in understanding my issue. Overall the experience was fantastic!

Dr Herman is very professional in explaining the treatment options for your injury. Although the wait to see him was unusually long he did not make excuses but explained why and was very apologetic. He is quite personable and seems very competent. I was very pleased with his explanation and suggestion for treatment. He gets a five star rating and I definitely recommend Dr. Herman for anyone needing a hand specialist.
