Patient Reviews
Nov 02, 2018
My daughter had the worst care at Henry Mayo Newhall Emergency room. They sent her home with a broken and dislocated ankle without any medication. She was touched by an angel when Dr Richard Ferkel was able to take her as a patient. He took care of the disaster that was Henry Mayo Newhall Hospital and with his great care, skill and incredible team, my daughter is back at 100 percent and teaching tap dancing. Thank you Dr. Ferkel. The most incredible guy ever. Great jerseys of stars he treated.
