Too long of a wait. Even in the early morning. How can he be so far behind in the morning.

Dr. Herendeen does not do what he says he is going to do in his surgery. He said he would do a skin Transplant, but I came out scalped. I don't trust him.

If you're looking for someone who is rude, condescending, and has the bedside manner of a disgruntled frat boy, this is your guy! As for me, I will be steering clear.

He was rough with my injury every visit. He was not informative. Acted as if I wasn't even in the room. He is in, then out. No communication. He leaves no time for questions or answers. Worst experience I've ever had.

I had fallen and pushed the left side of my nose over to the right side.. I was unable to breath well and my nose was now shaped like an S. I cried each time I looked into a mirror. Dr H said he could help my breathing but could make no promises regarding the appearance of my nose but would try to improve it as much as he could. Not only did he fix my breathing he fixed my nose to better than it was prior to my fall. I have already recommended Dr Herendeen to 4 others. HE IS THE BEST!!!!

He didn't even know anything about his patient before he suggested she needed surgery! He talked as if his patient wasn't even there!
