Dr. Herline is one of the nicest doctors I have ever, ever had. My husband and I both say that he is kind and he's compassionate and he takes time with you and you never feel rushed. He's just one of the good guys and one of the very best, if not the best.

I just felt unheard and dismissed. I'll make sure to see another doctor somewhere else next time. The nurse assisting me was amazing though and the front counter person was also amazing. To bad. I pre paid for the appointment and now they are trying to charge more. Haha The doctor was only in the room for 5 minutes

Doctor should have explained the procedure which he recommended me, that what are the side effects of that procedure, because he recommended me to put some kind of gadget and he just told that it will be forever. When I asked him for how long, he said it's forever, but he should have explained me that I might get infections with that thing in my body or no, it's very safe or what are the consequences and if doesn't work then what's next? He did not explain anything of this one. He should have.

Everyone, and I do mean everyone from the receptionists to the nurse to the doctor, was so friendly! I've never felt more welcome in a doctor's office than I did here. Dr. Herline was great. He was very easy to talk to and explained everything thoroughly. I have already told a few family members and friends if they ever need a specialist in this area, they need to come to this practice.
