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.

ABSOLUTELY THE BEST!!!!!!! I had surgery on my right rotater cuff several years ago with some residual nerve damage, the shoulder works well, but nerve damage is nerve damage. Tommy did my left rotater cuff this last November and NO nerve damage and the shoulder works perfectly, with an amazingly fast recovery!!!! Tommy and his staff and everyone at KSB, were fantastic!!!! Best hospital experience I've ever had!!!!!

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Hernandez?
Dr. Hernandez took the time to explain my condition and and actively listened to my concerns I was worried about the pain when He told me I would need an injection in my knee. I had heard that it could be very painful. Dr. Hernandez talked to me the entire time he was preparing the medication which helped distract me and when He gave me the shot it was painless. I will recommend him to my friends and think he is a wonderful very knowledgable DR. I give him 5 Stars
