Patient Experience Reviews
I always have a great experience with my health provider and their team!!!
Dr. Hernandez is fantastic. The most enjoyable and respectful doctor experience I have had in my lifetime. *** she is wonderful.
I find Dr. Hernandez knowledgeable, professional, personable, and empathetic.
Excellent!
Very good. New provider replacing retired provider and knowledgeable about my health and even tests results from long ago.
Dr Hernandiz is always very attentive of My concerns excellent at explaining health concerns talks directly to me answers all my questions never rushes me out if exam room she is a wonderful dr
This provider is the person who picked up the patients of a provider who retired from this practice. They are slowly adding new providers to help relieve the business of those who were there. This is the provider we requested when our provider of over twenty years retire. The new provider takes her time and makes you feel important and listens to your concerns. Just like making a new friend It takes time to get used to each other and communicate at each other's level.
All good
Dr. Hernandez is a fantastic physician. My only complaint with this office is how long it takes to see the actual provider. I was taken back to the exam room shortly after checking into my appointment, but then waited over 30 minutes to see the physician. I'm in good health so my routine exams take maybe 15 minutes. It's quite frustrating that for 15 minutes of care, I am spending >60 minutes in the office.
I have always received excellent care from Dr. Laura Hernandez and her staff from the front office to the assistance that check me in and take my blood pressure etc. To the doctor herself. She is able to dress small and large concerns and is able to communicate with me about each one in a timely manner without feeling rushed, or that she didn't have enough time for every concern. Each concern and accompanying questions and answered, were taken care of, including follow up suggestions, I,E. Medication, exercises.
Good visit. Thanks
Very well informed and respectful of my history and concerns
Dr. Hernandez is a AWESOME doctor!!!!!

Dr. Hernandez is a AWESOME DOCTOR!!!!!!
I was seen for an old injury that flared up and wouldn't resolve on its own. Thought it would take a month for an appt. But was seen the next day by my regular pcp
Excellent doctor.
Very good experience
1st time with my new doctor I thought everything went well
Great experience overall from when I walked in the door and left. My provider gave me all the details and answers to my questions and concerns. Left with great direction on the next steps to getting better. Couldn't ask for a better provider to assist me in my health. Thank you.
Love Dr. H! I'm very happy with the care that I receive from her!
Dr. Hernandez was excellent as always. I would also like to recognize ***, the MA. She was awesome. *** was very professional but also friendly and cheerful. She made my day 100% better and was a ray of sunshine! All of the MA's and nurses are fantastic at this office but just wanted to give Ambar recognition individually.
Everybody was friendly kind courteous and told me everything I needed to know
Great dr.
Dr Hernadaz is very thorough in her explanations really listens to my concerns explains things so a person can understand in an English. Good eye contact her nurse Betty is very nice also doesn't rush you in and out neither dr or nurse. Feel I am being well cared for.
Dr. Hernandez is a great physician and all of her staff are top-notch. ***
All good with Dr. Hernendez
*** I have a very good doctor.
I am new to this provider due to the fact my regular doctor retired. She was very aware of my previous visits and knew my medical history when going in to see her. We were happy to Dr. Hernadez as our primary care physican.
*** I am VERY pleased her her care to this point.
Had an appointment with Dr. H for the first time after my longtime health provider retired.She did a wonderful job with my visit. I'm pleased and will look forward to my future health care.
Was first meeting with provider. Very knowledgeable, informative, clear questions and statements.
Dr. Hernandez is an outstanding physician! Highly recommend her! Very knowledgeable and caring person!! Just made an appointment with her for my son. My whole family has Dr. Hernandez as our PCP!
I have great accessible care with Dr Hernandez and all the UH team
I thought my doctor did a good job, ***
I think Dr. Hernandez is great!
I am very pleased with my provider. She thoroughly and logically explains her diagnosis and makes sure I understand her reasoning. She asks if I have any further questions or concerns. I definitely will recommend her to my family and friends.
I like Dr. Hernandez. She works hard to take care of her patients needs.
Excellent treatment. Caring and knowledgeable
This was the first time I saw Dr Hernandez. So some of these questions I couldn't really answer fully. I was in for my 6 month checkup. The time Dr Hernandez spent with me was appreciated. I was new to her and she was new to me, replacing Dr Gerlach.
Awesome doctor! I was nervous after Dr. *** retired as my doctor of 25 years. Dr. Hernandez has been great for me! I would highly recommend her to others! Smart, compassionate, takes her time with me, always follows up! Great doctor!!!
Dr. Hernandez is always professional yet very warm in her communications.
Everything went well.
Even though I waited more than 15 minutes for the doctor, it was worth the wait to be with a doctor who cared and listened and clarified and was personable. Dr. Laura was great.
This is a new doctor for me after my 30-year doctor retired. I'm still unsure if I will continue here.
Good visit
Dr. Hernandez actually talked with me and got to know a little more about me. She made me feel that she really cared about my condition. I liked her.
I'm very happy with Dr Hernandez and staff
We are very pleased with Dr. Hernandez and her nurse assistant Betty.
Second time seeing this provider which has taken over for my primary I had for the last 35 years. Overall was pleased during the visit.
My doctor of 40 years recently retired. My first three visits with the new doctor have gone well. It's been a good experience.
Very happy with the experience
Dr. Hernandez and nurse *** are very thorough
Laura Hernandez is an excellent physician. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a primary care physician.
I am extremely satisfied with the care that I have received from Dr. Hernandez. For decades before Dr. *** retirement, I was fortunate to be Dr. *** patient and I feel that Dr. Hernandez is giving 100% in her efforts to be a very capable member of this practice. I am pleased that I can be one of her patients.
This was my first visit with Dr. Hernandez after having Dr. *** as my primary care giver for 43 years. I cannot say enough about her professionalism, her positive demeanor, and her ability to communicate! I went in with an open mind, but with some hesitation about changing doctors after mine had retired. I now am confident I made the right choice with Dr. Hernandez! I feel comfortable enough to see her for any medical concern I may have!
Was very pleased with the transition from *** to Laura Hernandez. Also, nurse assistant *** was very thorough and kind.
I like my new doctor, the staff was very good. ***
Dr. Hernandez was very thoughtful about my care. This was my first visit with her. I liked her a lot for my new PCP.
I appreciate that even though my appointment was delayed, it's likely because Dr. Hernandez takes ample time with her patients, and does not rush them. She took time with me during a difficult appointment and I am thankful for that.
