Great bedside manner. Explained options well.
Dr Fernandes is great! Listens, explains & tries to come up with a practical plan for my issues. Highly recommend!
I was seen very timely and everyone was extremely helpful and friendly. Dr Fernandes was very personable and listened to everything I had to say. He made sure I understood what his thoughts were, and offered a solution I was happy with. He made sure to offer future help if needed as well. I would highly recommend Dr. Fernandes.
He is a very nice doctor, he has performed two carpal tunnel surgeries on my hands and I do not have any more pain in them. Really nice guy.
Nice, explained surgery, no complaints here!
Very nice and concerned. Explained everything very well.
It was my first visit with Dr Fernandez today, he is caring and dedicated to his profession in providing patients with optimal success with their hand surgery. As a dental hygienist, my hands are crucial to my profession as so many other patients. I look forward to enjoying life again with constant discomfort. Dr. Fernandez and staff were awesome, from check in, to departure. I plan to return to start my journey of improving my hand function and schedule carpal release surgery. Thank you, Dr Fernandez
4 surgeries in 6 months on both hands. I can't thank Dr. Fernandes and his staff enough for the incredible care my wife and I received. Seriously, if you have a hand issue there is absolutely no one else you should see.
His staff is always friendly. Always goes above and beyond for us.
Pretty nice Dr. He answer all my questions and my concerns
