I am impressed. After having very bad experiences at Pembroke Pines, I was delighted with Cleveland Clinic. Dr Joshua Hendrick could not had been more courteous. He listened and answered all my questions. He took mental notes and posted then in my chart. This is also the best chart I have had. I was able to link my data from my endocrinologist in Miami.

Once in a while, you get a doctor that actually smiles, listens, involves you in the conversation, and treats you like the unique human being you are. Dr. Joshua Hedrick is that kind of a man. My next surprise was the advanced technology Cleveland Clinic has. It has the best MyChart platform I have ever seen. I was able to link my previous lab data from Doctors from the University of Miami and other hospitals. It really helps to compare all the lab results from previous years in a paperless form. After this visit, I am going to choose even my primary provider from Cleveland Clinic. I am looking forward to my next visit with a vertebrate column specialist, and Dr. Hedrick again.
