Q&A with Dr. Herrera
What are you most passionate about professionally? Personally?
My biggest passion is to find the root cause of people’s health concerns. I want all my patients to feel that I am a doctor who helps them “connect the dots” of their symptoms to get to the correct diagnosis and give them the tools they can use to treat it accordingly.
What three traits define you?
Compassionate, Hardworking, honest
What’s one thing you couldn’t live without?
My great support system through family and faith
What problems do you consistently solve for your clients?
I address diverse health aspects and consistently overcome obstacles to achieve optimal well-being for the patient.
What are you complimented on most in your work?
I’m an attentive listener who meets patients where they are and guides them towards their health goals.
Who is your ideal client and why should they connect with you?
Someone who understands they can take control of their health and I can be their biggest supporter.
In your work or creative process, what concepts are sacred? Which rules have you made, which ones do you follow?
Always start with kindness because you never know what a person is struggling with.
What is your grand, audacious goal? What do you wish people would know, believe, do?
I want to help all of my patients to feel seen and heard. Having a support system is essential in the healing process. I wish people would understand that they matter and self-care is essential in obtaining optimal health.
Where do you live?
Western suburbs
What do you do for fun in your spare time? What are your hobbies?
I like to be outside, whether its walking, running or just laying on the beach. I love spending quality time with family/friends and watching a good movie. Any suggestions?
