I cannot explain how great my pregnancy was under the care of Dr. Fernandez . I used to go to another Obgyn in Hoboken and when I found out I was pregnant I tried to go there. The staff had changed and was disgustingly horrible when I showed up. This was my first pregnancy and to say I was treated like nothing is to say the least. I went and continued to look for an Obgyn in Hoboken since I like 2 minutes from there. Dr. Fernandez and all the reviews came up so I decided to make the call. The first time I called I thought it was a joke I was on hold forever and a day. I finally made the appointment and was able to see him the following day after I explained that I took two tests and had to confirm my pregnancy and another doctor Ive been going to I went to their office and I couldnt get anything done: I walked in with my fiancé and dr Fernandez asked about us explained his practice and started to joke. He asked if the other place did my blood work and I said yes that I wanted to just see the baby . He said oh let me see if I can get this done for you. I was 6 weeks pregnant and the ultra sound tech was leaving. He asked her to just take a second to check me just to even see anything. They laid me down and sure enough I saw my little peanut . I almost cried because an Obgyn I was going to for years wouldnt do anything for me and finally just drew up my blood work to confirm the pregnancy. We left and from that day we knew he was our doctor. The staff there is amazing they know you by name even their receptionist . They all get to know you so personally. At 29 weeks pregnant I woke up vomiting which was weird because I never had morning sickness. After a few hours of non stop vomiting I went to the hospital. We were rushed up to L&D and they stated I had to wait for my doctor and put me IV. Dr Fernandez showed up within 2 hours of me being there and ran tests. Long story short we thought it was my appendix but it was just a virus but for the day and a half I was there he never left my side constantly checking on me. Closer to the end of my pregnancy I went in at 37 weeks and they found out that my sons fluid had dropped and i would have to be induced. After 30 hours and 3 types of medications to try and induce I was tired of not contracting and broke down and he came into the room and spoke me through it because he knew I wanted to do everything to avoid a c section. After 51 hours of being induced and every mediciation being at the highest that they could be, still no contractions. The babys heartrate started to drop and the fluid too low I had to get a c section. On the follow up date (1 day after going home) I had to get my staples taken out (I had both staples and stitches) . My son would not sleep the first day and cried and I couldnt figure out why. Sure enough I went to get my staples removed and I was a mess. (I found out he was being underfed btw). The entire staff and the Dr. spoke to me to make sure I was alright before leaving. They became so dear to me and Dr. Fernandez was a big part of my support system. I love them all and especially him. I was sad to walk out for a while and to know next few weeks I wont be there. My pregnancy journey with them was beautiful and I cannot wait to have my second child with them.

I came to Dr. Osbert Fernandez because of all the wonderful reviews. Unfortunately, my experience wasnt so great here. My first visit, I spoke to Dr. Osbert about the type of contraception Id like to use. He immediately followed up with an alternative (one I didnt want), and urged me to use it instead. I had to come in another time for a more in-depth procedure due to something that showed up on the results which might indicate cancer. I was told prior by the Dr that they might need to do a biopsy. During and after the procedure, I was never told that a biopsy took place. I had to find out online that he actually did do a biopsy, which explains the intense pain. My results came back, no cancer, and no one from the office actually called me back this time. I had told the Dr during the first visit that I have inflammation, which is all it was. And yet, he still did a biopsy without telling me so. To say that I felt neglected is an understatement.

I am not usually one to write reviews about anything or anyone but Dr. Fernandezs outstanding care warrants one. Dr. Fernandez has been my OB for 8 years and I recently delivered a baby under his care (July 2015). For all of the time I have known him, Dr. Fernandez has taken exceptional care of me. He always takes his time to explain and answer any questions. Never once have I felt rushed or that I didnt feel confident about anything we had discussed and his bedside manner puts you at complete ease to open up to him. He made me feel safe and secure that my baby and I were both taken care of especially during some early challenges in my pregnancy and then going into early labor. There is a peace of mind in working with a doctor who you feel is so trustworthy, committed and kind. I recommend Dr. Fernandez wholeheartedly without a single hesitation.

My experience wast very great. Went to Dr Fernandez for a pill prescription and see which one would be the best for me. I am a smoker and have also trombosis history in my family, he talked to me for maybe 5 min total, (after a 30 min wait) prescribed me a pill he said was good, but didt explain anything about it. The first week was fine, but after 7 days I started to have a huge pain in my legs, was hurting so much espacialy with the heat outide. Had to call my boyfriend and he brought me to hospital. Nothing too serious I had no blood clots thank god, but I was retaining tons of water and had to stop the pill right away. I think that if he took more time to talk to me and care more about my health that wouldt happened. I am 22 years old and never had a problem like this before, now I am scared to try any other birth control!!

I just gave birth to my beautiful baby girl Harper on August 9 2017. Luckily I found Dr. Fernandez on yelp & it was the best decision I think Ive made doctor wise my entire life. If I can give him 10 stars or even 100 I know I would! From the very first visit in his office I felt completely at ease & comfortable with him. His approach with me & Im sure all his patients is so warm & the laid back. Like an old friend you have known your whole life, yet professional & concerned with your health. Everyone in his office has been nothing but professional which I am a huge stickler for. I could never thank him enough but Im hoping this review brings more people to him so they can experience exactly what I did! Great care Clean, friendly, professional office and staff Knowledgeable doctor with a great personable approach.
