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.

Nasty duodenal ulcer
Was admitted to the hospital from the ER for severe stomach pain. Fortunately, Dr Hernandez administered the endoscopy which revealed a nasty, bleeding duodenal ulcer which was unexpected, but clamped on the spot. His comprehensive explanation and care as well as by his staff throughout is so appreciated. Many thanks.

Dr. Hernandez is an amazing Doctor as well as a human being. He explains everything about your condition and doesn’t rush you through his consultation. He’s been my doctor for about 15 years and he also treated my son. My experience with him is always excellent.

Poor service. I have to call for information on my scan results; everything was fine but still they asked me to go back to their place and pay a new consultation for them to send me new test and they were not able to send me any medicine for my reflux and stomach pain....
