How likely are you to recommend Dr. Fernandes?
Dr. Fernandes has been the best experience I have had, I have been seeing cardiologists since the age of 10 due to a childhood heart condition and I am very particular about my care. From the first day I met her Fernandes has been honest about my care and expectations as my provider. She is very knowledgeable when it comes to heart health and provides tough love because she cares. I travel from Atlanta to my appointments because I know the standard of care and each associate and NP that I have worked with have been thorough and helpful on my journey to optimal health. I highly recommend Dr.Fernandes and her team and no matter where I live I will be her patient.
