Biography
I am a board-certified gastroenterologist. As a physician, I believe in a patient-centered care approach because it’s important for patients to participate in their individual treatment plan. I pride myself on establishing a rapport with my patients and their families so that I can deliver the best personalized care that they deserve. I attended medical school at Hahnemann University in Philadelphia, PA, on a Naval scholarship. I then spent the next 10 years in the United States Navy where I did my internship, residency and fellowship. I served as a naval medical officer, Internist and gastroenterologist. My last four years in the Navy were spent at the Bethesda Naval Hospital in Bethesda Maryland. I returned to my home state of Pennsylvania in 1995 and have proudly served the Lehigh Valley for over 25 years. When I am not caring for my patients, I enjoy spending time and traveling with my amazing wife and my seven wonderful children. My personal interests include exercising, grilling and fishing.

I was a new patient of Dr. Herman and was so pleased and highly recommend him! He's extremely personable and very knowledgeable and took the time to understand my concerns. I will be having procedures performed, but left his office feeling relieved just speaking with him. His staff (Melissa) was just wonderful! Thanks, JA
