Dr. Hertzler is amazing and helped us feel at ease with a terrifying situation. My last ultrasound reveled that my son would need brain surgery almost immediately after birth. When my son turned one month, he had to undergo surgery to remove a cyst in the center of his brain. Dr. Hertzler did an amazing job and I would even say artistic in his work. My son is now 5 years old and the scar is barely noticeable. Dr. Hertzler made the cut behind his hairline and with such care that I couldn’t have asked for anything better. He provided end to end care and still gives us wonderful care as we continue to monitor my son’s growth in tandem with the cyst that will always be a part of his life. It’s the type that doesn’t go away, but can be drained if the rate of growth of the cyst is faster than the rate of growth of his brain and head.

MY DAUGHTER WAS LIKELY MIS-DIAGNOSED WITH MOYA MOYA DISEASE & AFTER SEEING DR. HERTZLER & ANOTHER NEURO SERG. WITH THEM BOTH HAVING THE SAME CONCLUSION THAT THE IMAGING THAT WAS TAKEN AT MEMORIAL WAS OF POOR QUALITY AND THAT IT WAS NOT A BELEIF TO THEM THAT SHE HAD MOYA MOYA. THE NEXT STEP TO OUTRULE 100% WAS FOR US TO WAIT 6 MONTHS AND GET A CT WITH CONTRAST DONE. SINCE THEN I HAD ANOTHER MRI DONE SO I THOUGHT MAN IT WOULD BE NICE FOR HIM TO TAKE A LOOK AT THIS BETTER IMAGING AND SEE IF WE REALLY NEED TO PUT MY DAUGHTER THROUGH THIS CT WITH CONTRAST. SO I WAS TOLD SURE AT FIRST 5 MONTHS AGO DROP THE IMAGING OFF. SO I DID 2 TIMES DIRECTLY TO THEIR OFFICE AND FOR WHATEVER REASON IT WAS LOST. AND I STILL WASNT UPSET HOWEVER THE 3RD TIME I WENT TO DR. TOROSIC OFFICE TO ACTUALLY GET THE JOB DONE IN MEANS OF UPLOADING THE IMAGING INTO THE SYSTEM. WHEN I CALLED DR. HERTZLER OFFICE ESTHER DAVID WASNT LISTENING TO ME AS THE PATIENT, KEPT ON TELLING ME TO JUST GET THE CT DONE. I EXPLAINED TO HER THE SIUTATION OF THE POOR IMAGING AND WOULDNT WANT TO PUT MY CHILD THROUGH ANY FURTHER TESTING IF REALLY NOT NECCESSARY. SHE CONTINUED TO DIRECT ME TO GET THE IMGAING DONE. IN ADDITION SHE KEPT STATING HOW THEY HAVE NEVER LOST IMAGING THERE BEFORE. WHICH WASNT THE POINT I NEEDED TO FOCUS ON. DOCOTOR IS AMAZING BUT STAFF IS A MESS..I WORK WITH MEMORIAL AND SO IMAGINE HOW THEY WOULD TREAT YOU

Dr Hertzler is a fabulous doctor, he performed brain surgery on my 16 year old daughter and never once hesitated to answer her questions or mine... We even ran into him outside the office and he stopped to talk to us... Wonderful man...

Dr. Hertzler was just excellent to interact with when my infant daughter recently had surgery. I don't usually take the time to write a review about a physician but my husband and I were so impressed with Dr. Hertzler's manner, surgical skill, and personality that he deserves my time to write a review. The thing that stood out most to us was his willingness to provide detailed answers to many questions we had both pre and post-op. He visited my baby's room in the hospital and interacted with the family again by explaining the surgery and discussing the case with us. For someone so skilled he came across as very down to earth.
