    How was your appointment with Dr. Fernandez?

    Jul 15, 2018
    Dr. Fernandez explained everything and talked through my concerns with me. The x-ray machine is down the hall and by the time you get back to the room he has the x-ray pulled up on the computer ready to discuss. I had an injection in my back, felt nothing and it has helped. Also an injection in my knee which has made walking easier. I would highly recommend him.
