I am a healthy 42 year old male and I have had two terrible experiences with Dr. Fernandez's office…read moreand would highly recommend everyone seeking a different option. I originally saw a nurse practitioner for my annual physical back in March 2024. We had recently relocated from California and I wanted to receive an annual physical. Annual physicals are included as preventive services under the Affordable Care Act meaning patients cannot be charged for an annual physical (see 42 USC 300gg-13 https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=(title:42%20section:300gg-13%20edition:prelim)). The annual physical was a nondescript experience and I answered the questions the nurse practitioner asked me. Unfortunately, I became very sick in August 2024. After a few days I tried to see Dr. Fernandez and was eventually able to get in to see the nurse practitioner. The office tested me for influenza A&B, COVID, and strep which all came back negative. I told the doctor my son had experienced similar symptoms a few weeks earlier and eventually developed pneumonia. I went home with no medicine. Five more days passed and I was feeling no better and had developed a hacking cough which led me to strain my oblique. It was incredibly painful. I again called Dr. Fernandez's office and was able to get prednisone and a Z-pack prescribed to me but not a cough suppressant because they wanted me to be seen again in a couple of days. They also wanted to perform a chest x-ray which could not be done on site. Because I was feeling so terrible and was in so much pain I ended up going to receive Total Access Urgent Care. There I was able to receive an x-ray the same day which revealed I had pneumonia. They were able to provide me a shot which gave instant relief and a cough suppressant to help moving forward. This was done at a cost of $150 after insurance was provided. I informed Dr. Fernandez's office of this diagnosis and, to there credit, they were apologetic about the care I received and they stated they wished I had seen Dr. Fernandez for my annual physical instead of the nurse practitioner because we had no prior relationship. There appeared to be a lack of trust on the Dr. Fernandez's end in what I was saying because of the lack of relationship. However, if new patients are not provided the opportunity to meet the doctor I don't know how I could have handled this differently. Now to the part that has me incredibly frustrated. A few weeks back I received a bill for the August visit which I don't dispute. However, tacked on to the bill was a charge of roughly $200 for the annual physical in March. At no prior point had I received a bill for this service which made sense to me because the insurer has to cover the entire cost of preventive services which includes an annual physical. Unfortunately, Dr. Fernandez's office had coded the care incorrectly causing a dispute with my insurance company. Currently, her office is refusing to change the coding leaving my insurer unable to cover the full cost of the annual physical. I would highly recommend not seeing Dr. Fernandez as she likely won't be able to see you in person as a new patient, won't trust what you tell her as a patient when you are sick, and then try to screw you on billing. I could not be more disappointed in the services I received from this office.

She had a folder of all the information we were going to cover on services and pricing so I could focused in taking this all in. We took our time on the tour looking at each room and getting information on how to utilize under a spa pass, monthly membership or annual membership. There is a gym, a cafe, even an area to bring your laptop or books to have a quite space in a relaxing environment. On our tour we were even able to discuss the micro needing and Anteage with one of the technicians. Big fan of the salt rock and cryo offered. I have had great benefits from both of those services over the course of my lifetime. I.was so impressed after the tour I booked a facial for 1/26 and am looking forward to seeing how this compound can fit into my new world. Hard to put a price on wellness and happy to have health care benefits to do so. Purchased a spa pass $50.00 for the day to get you in the door and micro needling plus products Anteage $425.00. They do accept the HSA and FSA as well as credit cards for payment.

After those services, I had lunch in their cafe, followed by the salt room, cryotherapy, sound focus and biomat. The sound focus was new and something I had never done before. I m still super curious about if it works or not! By the end of the day, I was super relaxed and ready to go back to work the next day! I love that this place does not do tips so check out was a breeze. My hope is to go back monthly and take advantage of my full membership. My only complaint is that the cafe is not open on weekends!

He even recommended my new gynecologist during my first visit and looked up their phone number for me! I rarely ever go to the doctor. I only really go when I feel like I absolutely need to but I have called their office several times to inquire about issues and have recently made an appointment for my biometrics and blood work to turn in to my insurance and the lady on the phone was very helpful and accommodating.

However, as far as the service from my physician goes, I have no complaints. I would definitely recommend this place and Dr. Foersterling to others.

I asked for confirmation and she only repeated my first name, which still did not sound correct. Upon being taken back to get my labs done she asked which arm I preferred. I wasn't sure and took about 5 seconds or less to think and she told me to "hurry up and pick one - there are people waiting to get their labs done in the waiting room". I was taken aback and so surprised by the rudeness I could only stare back and was barely able to get out "the right arm". She was wearing a mask and it was hard to understand her without seeing her face, but I could tell she never smiled with her eyes. The taking of the labs which is usually no big deal was replaced by a very painful experience. I've never hurt that badly before when taking labs. My arm is very sore and bruised. The first letter of my last name on the vial was covered up, so when trying to confirm it was correct I had to confirm but pointed out that part of my name was covered up and unreadable. I left feeling disappointed and saddened that someone would treat a patient this way. It may seem like a small thing, but for whatever reason it made me feel bad and makes me not want to return for fear of having the same person with the same experience.
