I am always hesitant to find a new doctor in the area...going in with eyes wide shut. Dr. Hernandez reassured me that I was in good hands and would be taken care of one thing at a time. He was supportive, comforting, and knowledgable about the process I was going through. He took his time and gave me hope back in the medical field.

Prior Dr. had prescribed a few Norco per month for migraine headaches. Dr. Hernandez entered a diagnosis of "substance abuse disorder- opiate dependence". Then when I discovered a medication was causing headaches and discontinued the medication he entered into the record "noncompliant patient". These entries in medical records are improper and have potential for serious consequences in the hands of the wrong person.

Honestly, I was a little worried meeting with the doctor because of all the reviews. I went in there with a skin rash. Dr. Hernandez was amazing. He was kind and very clear. Not many primary doctors are as patient and kind as he is, the most doctor just wants to get you out the office but not Dr. Hernandez. He deserves better reviews! BTW, he moved locations, he is now practicing at heritage medical group near antelope valley hospital!
