My 1st visit with him was today & his staff & him were very pleasant. We were called back to the exam room within a very timely manner. X-rays & exam done in a very timely manner too. Extremely impressed with everything from the time I walked in almost an hr before my appointment, all the way until I walked out. Nothing but praise for Dr Fernandes & the staff.
