Dr Henderson is extremely knowledgeable, great at explaining everything, and has an excellent staff
This office is very well run. Everyone is kind and helpful.
This was a first visit with Dr. He was wonderful. I have been a CCF patient since 1999 and have become very disappointed in the care I received there. I have been switching to UH. So far the care has been wonderful. The complete atmosphere is different in a very good way. When calling to set up appointment the customer service is superb. They have taken time to help me find the Dr that suits my specific needs and has led to perfect choices. I do not like change. The staff at UH has made and Is making the transaction so much easier. They seem to be happier in their jobs than other hospital staff are.
Dr Henderson is a professional, always. He explains things so I understand meditation and what is expected from taking it. He always treats me with kindness and respect.
Overall very good first visit with physician.
Excellent care from provider and his care staff. Awesome overall personality and professionalism.
Excelllent Doctor!!
I call Dr Henderson they got me in 30:00 minutes
I was leaving on vacation and was squeezed in with the doctor that was not at the office I usually have my appointment. Very accommodating
This is a very well run office. I have recommended Dr Henderson often.
I was very impressed with Dr. Henderson, he was sensitive to my needs, he was compassionate, positive and very knowledgeable. I felt very comfortable with him.
Excellent care and service
Explains everything well. Listens to my concerns. Spends as much time as needed.
Excellent Experience
*** This doc is definitely at the top of the list. I worry he will be recruited by a bigger hospital system or go out of town. UH needs to appreciate him and do everything it can to keep him on staff.
Excellent physician! Also, all staff members were very helpful and pleasant.
Wonderful provider. Very engaged
Dr. Henderson and his staff were very personal and made me feel very comfortable. The staff were very courteous and welcoming as this was my first visit with the doctor. Dr. Henderson appears very knowledgeable of my medical history as we discussed concerns, issues etc., as well as treatment going forth. I really liked the fact that Dr. Henderson listened to my thoughts and opinion about my health, and appreciated my advocating for my treatment on current condition for which I was referred to him. A very good appointment and I look forward to working with him in the future.
Very nice doctor, seems very knowledgeable
Dr Joseph Henderson is the best caring uro gyn doc. I'm a cleve clinic pt, but there's not a good uro gyn doc there in my book. I will definitely continue my care Dr Joseph Henderson, as well as referring him to my family and friends. He's very caring and shows empathy in your health concerns, which means a lot to me.
Dr. Henderson was very thorough and gentle. It was my first visit with him. Will set up appointment as I need them. Staff was very kind
Dr. Henderson is a wonderful doctor! He is also a very busy doctor and he appeared to be running behind the day I was there for my appointment. I had an issue that I had a senior van ride set up with a certain time for my departure and I got up to inquire how far long Dr. Henderson was because if it got to be too late I would have to leave. I have to say the ladies at the front desk managed to get me called back and I even left a sample and get ready for the doctor so that when he came in I would be ready to see him. I got done in time so I didn't have any issues which making my van ride on time. It was a relief!
I hadn't seen Dr Henderson for a check up bc I didn't know he was still at *** after it closed. His staff has always been great which is why I've been seeing him for over 10 years.
I received literature regarding my choices of procedures and both were thoroughly explained.
Dr. Henderson was incredibly caring and listened to the things I was saying. He did not try to rush the appointment or rush me out of the office as quickly as possible as some providers do. He makes you feel very calm and eases your concerns of seeing a urologist. I'd recommend him to anyone.
Excellent physician, I was extremely pleased with my careOnly problem: Dr Henderson goes to 3 or 4 locations and I cannot have my follow up appointment at the location where I received care for this visit.
Terrific doctor! Excellent bed side manner. Everyone in the office also terrific! So happy I have this doctor to care for me.
He did a great job. I did not wait long .He explain everything so it took a little longer than 15 minutes.Thank you for a great doctor that listen and explain everything about my health and needs .
Office/nursing staff professional, courteous, two staff introduced themselves as they initiated contact with me. Physician very thorough, knowledgeable, respectful. ***
Dr. Henderson is exceptional in his professional caring manner.

My provider was excellent
Dr Henderson is by far my favorite doctor in the UH network. Is kind and patient and explains everything in terms I understand. He includes me in my treatment plan. He knows what he's doing and is super friendly. I highly recommend him.
Dr was excellent at listening and explaining his care
Love my providers.
The physician is excellent, very thorough and knowledgeable. I am very satisfied with the care I receive from Dr. Henderson. The receptionist is excellent and personable. The young lady who is responsible for the preliminaries has not been shown how to do her job.
I always learn a lot from the doctor.
Doctor is always attentive and informative
Dr, Henderson is kind considerate and a true professional
Good experience w doctor
Dr. Joseph W. Henderson is definitely an experienced physician and an expert in his field. I had previously watched his hour-long video about *** and all of the issues and treatments associated with it. I was quite impressive with his strong command of all of these issues that enabled me to feel comfortable making my appointment ASAP with him. I have now seen Dr. Henderson 3 times to date. I will see him again next February. I feel that I would not be moving this far ahead with my treatment that is successfully addressing my issues of concern since they became a noticeable problem in *** if I had not learned about Dr. Henderson and felt compelled to make an appointment with him. ***
Fabulous doc. Informative. Great presence
Excellent physician with empathy
I always receive excellent care when I see Dr. Henderson he is a wonderful doctor. He is very informative takes care and letting you know everything he's doing he wants you to be informed he is a great doctor. And the staff there has always been nothing more than very great, graceful, helpful, and concerning.
