Patient Reviews
Dec 25, 2023
Due to several reoccurring bouts of diverticulitis where an abscess developed, my primary care physician recommended I immediately have surgery to remove the damaged section of my colon. After interviewing several surgeons, I selected Dr Hernandez due to his experience with robotic surgery of this nature. The surgery was very successful, and I was back to normal activities after several days. Even though the surgery took place on Easter weekend, Dr. Hernandez after briefing my wife on the surgery results, visited with me three times during the two days I was hospitalized. His patience with me was excellent as he explained the surgical procedure that occurred and the results that were to be expected. Subsequently, I have had no problems resulting from this surgery and highly recommend Dr. Hernandez for this procedure.
