I don`t recommended him because after so many tests, he sends me to children Hospital and never saw him again. So, I spent a whole week there, for a test that was supposed to be done the same day. He never shows up, he didn`t even said what kind of test my daughter was supposed to have, the doctors were asking me "why you are here" "what are we supposed to do." They didn`t received any order for him. At the end, they have to call him, oh I don`t know who they call. But quite honest I don't recommend him.

Run! I’ve given this DR two chances and still have not had my child’s issue resolved. I feel like he didn’t properly explain nor did he listen to what I had to say. He didn’t even bother to look at me while I talked to him just stared at his computer. When I asked questions they were not answered. My pediatrician wasn’t happy with him eitheir. I would not recommend him. I requested his medical record and read over the notes, he even had symptoms listed that my son never had.

After two years doctors telling me that my daughter had to have a transplant . He was the only one who told me that we will try rehabilitation . He’s the only one who gave her a chance to have a better life. Thanks to God and Dr. Hernandez today she is 11 and she is leaving a normal life. He is always there for her. We have been blessed with him.

If I could give negative stars I would... they schedule his patients for appointment that they are not even in the building for. We were scheduled at 8:15am to come in 15 minutes early..... we arrived at 8am... the doors were locked and lights off until 8:15.... we get in the patient room... at 9am we are still waiting to see the doctor ( no other patients have come in) ... we ask... they say the doctor has not even arrived in the building. Then we ask if we can just get our test results that we paid for to take your another doctor... and he instructed his staff to not release any papers to us until he can see us in an appointment....( which he won't show up for)... this is after he already cancelled our first appointment... HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE!!!

the doctor takes the time to explain and assist with the babies needs and make sure the parents understand, he is super sweet to the babies and just has great bedside manners. I would definitely recommend him to anyone.
