Dr Fernicola replaced both my shoulders and both knees, the first shoulder in 2008, both knees in 2010 and the last shoulder in 2013. At 81, i am most grateful for my excellent experience with him. Recoveries were easy, hospitals pleasant and comfortable, and he always gave me all the time I needed.

I had gathered information on Doctor Fernicola prior to my making an appointment. His outstanding reputation preceded him. Dr. Ward and Dr. Pahl highly recommended him. My one and only meeting with him was very positive and encouraging. I came away from our meeting with good vibes.
