Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Great care, helpful staff
Dr Herman was very kind, straightforward, and clear about the care instructions for me. The staff was friendly and helpful before, during and after my appointment.

Two Month Follow Up Appointment after Hip Surgery
This was the 2 month follow up after hip replacement surgery. Dr Herman was thorough with the examination and took the time to answer all my questions. I was very satisfied with the responsiveness of the doctor and his entire staff.

Office visit
Dr Herman was great. I have an old injury that was bothering me. He examined my knee And reassured me that my knee is ok and gave me options on how to proceed. He listened attentively and gave me the information I need. I feel so much better now.

Great Doctor!
Dr. Herman always listens to my concerns and answers all my questions. His painless steroid injections have saved my knees and a couple of times my shoulders too. He knows what he is doing and I trust him!

As a healthcare provider myself, I appreciate that Dr. Herman is very professional, thorough, kind and explained everything well. He was referred to me by someone who also received a cortisone injection. His staff is efficient and helpful, especially his assistant Jennifer is always smiling and obviously loves her job.

I found him rude, not helpful and insulting. He made me feel I was wasted his time and he had no knowledge of my reason for coming in and on how to help. I was told by the person making the appointment he did have the knowledge for my visit. After the examination he left the room making a sound that he was disgusted with me. Not the best of bedside manners.

Was sure I was going to need shoulder surgery. Dr Herman convinced me to try less-invasive cortisone, which has worked for me. He also took the time to educate me on the nature of the injury.

I was having problems with arthritis in my knee and a friend told me about Dr Herman. I made an appointment and received a cortisone injection and I couldn’t believe the pain relief! I wish I had found him sooner. Dr Herman is very professional, kind and takes his time with you. I would highly recommend him! All the staff was very friendly and professional
