I am losing one of the best doctors on my team. I wish I had known before my last visit that it would be my last. I would have wished Dr Fernandez all the best in life because she changed my life. So sorry and sad to see her leave the practice.

Went once and Dr was nice but very hands off. It's a very disorganized office, I wouldn't recommend going here.
