Dr. Fernandez was very professional, caring and genuinely concerned for me as the patient. He obviously has much experience with IPF. I like the fact that patient cases are reviewed by a team of experts for further comments & discussion.

National Jewish Health Patient– September, 2016
Dr. Fernandez embodies all that we desire in our doctor. He is a brilliant clinician, professional, caring, and communicates in a way that patients can understand. He includes his patients in the plan of care and makes himself available between visits if necessary. I have been under Dr. Fernandez' care for over 4 years, and am certain that without his direction, I would not have survived.
