I never have to wait and when there is an emergency they typically can get you in in the same day. Dr. Fernandez is very caring and concerned about my children when she cant figure out what is going on she will pull out all the test to help with diagnosis. Her staff are friendly and helpful. She is very informing and explains things so it is easily to understand.

We really like Dr Fernandes and her Nurse, her front desk staff is just OK, hard to get in sometimes (They will just tell you there are no openings without consulting Dr Fernandes, I feel this should be on a case by case basis, we have had to just go to the urgent care because they weren't able to fit us in for over 24 hours and I didn't want my child waiting that long to be seen) but Dr Fernandes is easy to reach by phone on off hours. She has always called us right back. If we didn't like Dr Fernandes so much we may have switched pediatricians based on the office staff.
