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.

Dr. Hernandez was very open, friendly and easy to talk to

Excellent experience
Dr Hernandez is engaged, skillful and a fine person. His staff members are the same. I found it very reassuring that they communicate among each other, are aware of me and concerned about my progress from total knee replacement. I was totally confident with pre-op, surgery, hospitalization post-op. I am returning to work now at 12 weeks feeling great. I recommend Dr Hernandez wholeheartedly.

Total knee replacement. From the initial evaluation visit to post surgery follow-up I was exceptionally happy with Dr. Hernadas and the entire team at Brighams. The entire process provide excellent care, communication, and personal attention. 3 months post surgery and I am thrilled with the results so far.
