Saw Dr. Fernandez for a broken arm. She and her staff were kind, caring, and I had literally no wait time. Excellent care! I was referred to her by another medical professional who told me, "She's the best!" And, she was!

There is not enough praise that I could give Dr Fernandez. As a retired health professional, I know an outstanding Dr and office staff when I see it. And this Dr and office are definitely IT! I very highly recommend Dr Fernandez and staff for their pleasant, friendly demeanor, time spent with me, thorough explanation of my condition, and excellent treatment. RDG, DDS

Great Doctor and Awesome Staff I have Dupuytren's Contracture and have had several hand surgeries on both hands. I met Dr Fernandez a couple years ago and opted for needle aponeurotomy instead of surgery. The in office procedure went very well and within a few days I was doing normal everyday activities. Last month I had second needle aponeurotomy on my opposite index finger and as before it went perfect without any setbacks. Dr.Fernandez is a very knowledgeable and professional hand and upper extremity surgery specialist that really goes above and beyond for her patients. I would highly recommend Dr Carmella Fernandez for any of your upper extremity issues and needs.
