Patient Reviews
Jul 21, 2017
Dr. Fernando has been my PCP for the past 5 years. He is very attentive to my needs and shows genuine concern for my health. He takes the time to answer any questions and if I have an issue that he doesn't specialize in, he will refer me to good doctors that can address my issue. He has an awesome bedside manner, and my experience with him has always been positive. Many blessings to you Dr. Fernando!
