Dr. Guerrero I highly recommend to anyone needing surgery. When I went to Dr. Guerrero for my hernia, interestingly someone missed the hernia on my CT scan. She took the time to review my CT scan again and there is was, plain as day. I’ve been in pain for the last 3 months. 2 other doctors that I see found my hernia just by feeling area. I trust Dr. Guerrero, she took the time to review what was missed then examined where my pain was. She is explained what type of hernia I have and also explained how the surgery was going to be done. Fantastic doctors!
