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.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Fernandez?
I found Dr. Fernandez through a an urgent care nurse after complaining about my then current Primary Care Physician. Dr. Fernandez is a caring, thorough, and competent physician who has gone a long way to restoring my faith in the profession. She takes all the time needed in appointments and communicates well. She is friendly and compassionate without ever compromising her professionalism. I heartily recommend her.
