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.

Wonderful doctor
Dr. Herrera is a fabulous doctor. I saw her because of having a preterm baby with my first. She is so pleasant and informative. Truly has the best bedside for us mamas that are worrying about it all, she's calming and assuring. Dr Herrera definitely found her calling!

I LOVE Dr Herrera. She is so sweet and so professional! She was my doctor for most of my pregnancy, and saw me weekly because first I had extra amniotic fluid, then my baby was big so they watched me and baby closely. She is very patient and takes time to listen to any questions/concerns you may have. I wished she had delivered my baby also. The experience with Dr Herrera has been one of the best I have had with any medical provider. Also the experience at he office and with the rest of the staff is wonderful. My toddler loved coming with me to every appointment, because they always candy at the reception and the girls are very nice and friendly, lol. I 100% recommend Dr Herrera and the rest of the staff at Austin Maternal Fetal Medicine.

I was seen promptly at my visit and the staff was friendly and knowledgable. I was pleased to meet with Dr. Herrera in person, despite the current Coronavirus situation. She answered all of my questions, talked me through the ultrasound pictures and was very friendly and reassuring.

This woman is a real life angel. She has been amazing with my baby, myself and my fiancé my entire pregnancy. She makes me feel very comfortable, respected, safe and makes me feel good about myself too on this journey!! She answers all of my questions with great detail! She will even remember the smallest things I’ve mentioned in previous appointments and check in with me on it. The only downside is she doesn’t deliver! I wish this amazing woman would be able to deliver my son! She really cares about you and is passionate about what she does. I always have a smile on my face when I come in to see her! Her staff is very sweet as well. Her front desk nurse Ms.Debbie is a sweetheart and always wants to know how I’ve been doing and wants to see new ultrasound photos every time. The sonogram techs are just as great too. They take their time with you, explain every little thing they are doing on there and try to get the best photos for you. I hope whoever is reading this gets to experience

Dr. Herrera is amazing! She always makes me feel like she has all the time in the world to answer my questions and her patience with me has been so appreciated. When I found out i would have to start taking injections to my stomach I had a minor panic attach but she was so kind, reassuring and encouraging. I was eventually able to overcome my fears and give myself these injections. She makes me feel capable in myself which for me speaks so much about her character and demeanor.

Dr. Herrera and the staff at Austin Maternal Fetal Medicine are both capable and kind. My experience was very positive during my first visit to their office, and for a subsequent follow up. During my appointment with Dr. Herrera, I was very impressed by her enthusiasm for my child and by her caring disposition coupled with her expertise.
