Alvaro A Hernandez does not have an adequate amount of comments to generate the sentiment analysis.
I had a total knee replacement on my right side, the leg that tilted in onto the other one. When that healed, I noticed the left knee had pain at certain angles, would lock up, and when getting up would send shooting pains up and down my leg. So I had Dr. Hernandez check to see if I would be a candidate for a partial. I hoped to be approved for a partial so I could get back to active living rather than being a recovering patient. He completed the partial replacement about 10 months after the total. The first four weeks of each knee were equally uncomfortable, but after eight weeks I was leagues ahead in healing for the partial knee side. Now it has been seven months and I am an active happy busy lady! And my legs are finally straight. I can even wear high heels, but only if they are comfortable. Not a slave to fashion!
I was supposed to have a total knee replacement by another Ortho group. I heard of this robotic Arm Knee resurfacing surgery (no knee replacement) the robotic arm shaves or cleans all the bad of the knee and a implant is put on...up in 6 hours walking after surgery, one night in hospital and two months later back at work..it is the greatest thing ever...but remember this is not for everyone so see if you qualify for this treatment. And Dr. Alvaro Hernandez is the only one in El Paso who does this procedure...he is wonderful, great bedside manner and explains everything you need to know...excellent...
Dr. Hernandez has replaced both shoulder rotorcups and my right hip in the last two years. I'm now 65 and he did an excellent job. He took the time to explain what my wife wanted to know too, since she nursed me at all times.
Excellent surgeon and a terrific human being. I have complete faith in him.
I have been a patient of Dr. Hernandez for a number of years. He's such a caring doctor and takes his time to explain everything to you in detail. He also has a great sense of humor!!
Dr. Hernandez replaced both of my knees this year. I recovered quickly following both procedures, and for the the first time in many years I can move and walk without pain, crunching, or imbalance. It has been life changing and anyone considering knee replacement should strongly consider consultation with him.
He replaced my knee 18 years ago. No problems with it. I see him on a regular basis when I have back problems and recently witih burcitis (sp) in my L hip. I get shots to receive the pain every 3 months and I trust him. Wish he was a primary care physician. He has a great, caring, friendly personality and I feel his staff is perfect and so efficieint.
One of my favorite doctors. Very easy to talk to, takes his time with me and explains my options thoroughly.
He was very informative
He is attentive and I have had wonderful results

All the information you see here is based on our analysis of internet reviews across the seven major review platforms most used by consumers during their healthcare provider selection. The platforms we selected are Google, WebMD, Yelp, HealthGrades, Facebook, RateMDs, and Vitals. The analysis algorithm uses the compiled data of average score, recency of reviews, number of reviews, and the sentiment expressed in the written comments. It then assigns weight to each parameter based on the available research on how consumers use reviews in their doctor selection process.
