“I believe primary care is the heart and soul of the medical field,” shares Dr. Fernandez, “In many ways it encompasses all the specialties of medicine and serves as the gateway by which patients receive specialty care. During my medical training, I enjoyed several different specialties - OBGYN, surgery, orthopedics, dermatology to name a few. When I completed my family medicine clerkship, I learned that I had a passion for creating long-lasting relationships with my patients and their families. It was obvious to me at that point that family medicine would allow me to enjoy all the things I loved about other specialties while also serving as a patient's advocate, healthcare system navigator, and foundation of the medical home.”
Dr. Fernandez is now accepting new patients. To schedule an appointment, please call Harris Medical Associates at (828) 586-8971.
