Patient Reviews
Feb 22, 2024
Dr. Fernandez is one of the most empathetic physicians I have ever seen. She listens intently and never seems rushed. I am a physician and have never seen a doctor with better patient care skills or communication skills in over 25 years of practice . I feel so fortunate that she is caring for me.
