I’ve read reviews on Dr. Fernandes. My situation was not serious as it turned out. I felt like he wasn’t overly interested or concerned. I think of you have a serious situation needing surgery, he’s your Dr. If you’re working through some old age , overuse issues , he is a bit uninterested . He gave me some in office procedures that could work but not a lot of information.
