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.

The only pain doctor I know that doesn't help patients by prescribing pain pills. Why, because there is no profit in writing a prescription. He only offers profitable high cost injections that enters the bloodstream at a higher dosage and harder on the liver.

Dr Hernandez is an amazing Pain Dr
Been in pain mgmt for 25 plus years. Referred to him by my neurosurgeon to hopefully find relief and buy time before I have to have a 2 level fusion-revision. The goal was to buy some time before then. He recently did a lumbar ablation. Still too early to know if it will bring the needed relief for a while but very hopeful Dr Hernandez is very caring and he goes above and beyond. Very grateful I was referred to him.

Worse than bad care from Dr Henriquez and his team
Referred by Dr Grigov for SI joint blocks required for insurance prior to surgery to fuse. My appt was cancelled 2 weeks in saying slot was needed by existing customer and I was new. No alternative given. Asking for another Dr, Geo. Arcos given as alternative. But Arcos defied protocol by trying to take me over from Dr Grigov as his patient. Bottom line from Jan 8th referral date to May 1st, third of a year passed and Henriquez still had not satisfied the referral request. After wasting 4 months of my time, I am now with another doctor proceeding on schedule.

Two recent appointments with Dr. Omar Hernandez
All my visits were very satisfactory and informative. Dr. Hernandez listens for you to explain any problems that you may have. He takes the time to answer all questions. You do not feel at all rushed. His entire staff also very professional. As an retired RN with 44 years in nursing I worked from Boston to Honolulu. I would definitely rank Dr. Omar Hernandez and his team to be exceptional.

I highly praise Dr. Henriquez and his entire staff. I have been treated by many pain specialists and can easily attest to the doctor's methods, treatments, and most importantly, ability to listen and treat his patients accordingly. Simply stated: he is the best. It is rare to find a specialist with both skill and heart and Dr. H. has both. I must also add that his staff is superior. I feel that it is too bad that I only see these people when I am in pain! I thank you all.

I’ve seen Dr. Henriquez for several procedures; he is an incredibly compassionate soul AND very proficient! He worked with me to identify the best treatment and relieved my back pain from an “8” to a “2” and sometimes “0!” I can’t say enough positive things about my care at Family Spine. Faith, his assistant is great as are the rest of his staff; the office is very clean and organized. I’m so grateful to have found Dr. Henriquez!

Dr. Henriquez is an excellent physician. He listened attentively and offered me various options to control my neck pain. I had a series of injections, which helped me significantly!!!. After years of living with chronic pain, I now have a new lease on life, thanks to this amazing doctor. I highly recommend him to anyone who is suffering with pain.

The 1st time it seemed fine and like they card but that quickly dissolved. I was told I would be billed as In-Network, I wasn't and have been promised it would be fixed for 6 months and still hasn't been. The doctor charged me for evaluation of opioids, I was referred for a medical condition called Chronic Reflexive Pain Syndrome plus he never prescribed me an opioid. I requested the proper coding be put on my chart still not done. Had an MRI, they said pretty normal for my age, he wanted to do another injection even though the 1st did nothing. Had to file complaint with my insurance and thinking might have to with AMA as well. Would not recommend to anyone.

When we moved here last summer I was referred to Dr. Hernandez to continue treatment for migraine pain management. I highly recommend him. He is compassionate, takes time to listen and explains things. I never feel like he is rushing me through to see the next patient. The office is small and I don't feel like just another number is a large corporate atmosphere. He seems genuinely interested in me as his patient.
