Great, caring doctor! Dr Herrel is a good listener & collaborator. He responds to concerns & is willing to reasonably incorporate his patient's input/suggestions with his own. My husband & grown children, as well as myself have been his patients for 5+ years.
Dr. Herrel was professional and very easy to talk to.
Loved the thoroughness of the staff and Dr. I was very impressed and pleased with my visit.
Good, quick , helpful, knowledgeable and kind
Dr. Herrel was very caring and made me feel that he cared.
I've already recommended Dr. Herrrel to a few friends. It appears I found a provider and location that works for me. Thank You.
1st time meeting him and would definitely keep the Dr and send some other people to the Dr office
Dr Herrel is kind, patient, and understanding. He took the time to listen to what my symptoms were and together we worked out a plan to see what it can be
All around everyone in the office is amazing and Doctor Herrel is just an amazing guy feel really comfortable with him and feel like I can talk to him about anything and he listens. Also love how he don't rush in and out he actually takes the time to talk to you
Dr brought up about using colorguard and I said I was NOT interested in it. A colonostophy would be fine. Almost immediately after I left the office I get emails from colorguard. Then another one saying the kit is out for delivery!!! I said I did NOT want colorguard!! We even agreed in the office that the colonostophy is much better and I was provided a name of someone who does them I do NOT understand why I was signed up for Colorguard!!
Excellent care
Thank you
Dr. Herrel takes the time to listen to ou, which is practically unheard of these days in other doctor offices. The staff here was very friendly and helpful as well.

Dr. Herrel is a very professional and great example of how a dr. Should be.
This was my first appointment with Dr. Herrel and I was very impressed by his knowledge and understanding.
The facility was top notch. People were super friendly. No wait. Doctor was amazing. Explained everything I needed. Super friendly. Overall, amazing experience.
This was our initial visit and we feel confident with our switch to this location.
Very convenient fast in and out
Doctor was kind, asked questions, explained everything in easy to understand layman terms. His bedside manner was excellent.
I think they did a really good job, you know, trying to collect all the information and get everything ready before the visit. And you know, there wasn't much back and forth conversationally, but more tests had to be done, whatever. And I think they listened and did the best they could under an odd circumstance or given other factors. And I think, you know, they did a good job.
The doctor is really great, good doctor, very careful, and I would recommend him to anyone.
Dr. Herrel is a wonderful provider. He is kind, understanding and very respectful. He is easy to understand and always willing to explain anything I don't understand.

I am completely satisfied with my new primary care physician of 2 years and with the office in general. Everyone there is helpful and very friendly and always smiling
Dr. Herrel and staff are great. From the time you walk in, the receptionist to medical assistant, to PA in training to the doc are always courteous, pleasant, helpful and respectful.

Very caring, Dr Herrel did not push me out of the office
I felt comfortable meeting and talking with him for the first time. He had good advice. Hopefully he will remain with the practice and will still be there for my next visit in 6 months.
The appt was for medical clearance
My husband is finally happy with his first visit with Dr. HERREL and was completely at ease with him.
Dr. Herrel and his staff are extremely supportive, friendly, and positive. I could not be happier with choosing him and his staff as my primary physician.
Quality care - much appreciated !
Great Customer Service Great Staff Great Doctor
Very pleasant office. Above all my expectations .
After the staff took my weight, BP, pulse ox readings and ran through my entire history, I was then seen by the doctor who chatted with me briefly, listened to me breath and listened to my heart. He then ordered bloodwork and that was it. My former primary used to run an EKG, looked in my ears, eyes, mouth, checked my thyroid (because I have a known diagnosis of Hashimoto's) and would then palpatate my abdomen. I received a more thorough exam at my gynecologist than I did here.
Best family practitioner I ever had.
Excellent staff and caring.
Dr Herrel listened carefully and addressed all my concerns! Thank You!
Dr. Herrel is a caring and professional doctor . Makes you feel comfortable during your visit.
Dr Herrell is the best medical provider that I've ever had. He respects everything I have to say. He works with me on all of my health concerns and guides me to treatment that has worked. He has changed my life for the better and for that I will never forget him.
I think it was a professional doctor visit.
It was a very good experience. The doctor did listen to me and I would certainly recommend him to any of my family or friends. He was recommended to me by a good friend and it certainly was true. Thank you.

Excellent Doctor and staff!
I was very pleased with the whole visit with the doctor and with his staff. He was very pleasant and very conscientious doctor. And the staff was also very polite and clean and I would definitely go back. Thank you.
The whole experience was great. The doctor, Dr. Herrel, we bonded a couple of years ago. He is great. He covers it all. Everything that he had told me, even just for an inch, what to get, everything worked out. I keep him informed. He keeps me informed. It's just great. I can't say enough about him. You have a good man there. Bye.
Dr Herrel is very personable, intelligent and genuinely cares about his patients
I love the nurse she always so nice and understanding of my feelings. She says hi even when she's not the one taking care of me. I usually love going there. But this one time the waiting was so long by the time I saw the doctor I didn't know what to say. I was recovering from pneumonia and it was hart to sit there and wait. I waited about 30 minutes just inside the room. I waited over 30 minutes inside after the nurse did her routine. Thank you
Very happy with my experience with doctor Herrel and the staff.
Dr. Herrel is a very good and knowledge doctor. Listens to u and cares about your health
I was really impressed with how fast they got back to me with my results the day after. And Dr. Herrel was terrific when I was with him. Thank you.
Keep up the great work
Keep up your good work, your heart and compassion is in the right spot. And I also send that to Dr. Herrell. Thank you.
Awesome

Dr. Herrel and his staff are very, very good. They listen, they really do listen to you and they take care of you in a very quick manner. They address any concerns you have and they're very empathetic. They're quick to make an appointment. They don't make you wait. And all in all, it's the best experience you can have going to the doctor. Okay. And I would definitely refer him to anyone. And everyone. Thank you.
The doctor and his assistants were very knowledgeable and friendly and caring,
Always a seamless experience from the receptionist, the nurse, the doctor. Seamless experience. Professional, polite, and prompt. It's what the staff was every time. Every time. I'm really glad that I'm a team member at HMH.
I was searching for a new Dr. I mistakenly dialed a wrong number, was told he was taking new patients !!!!!! I took a chance . Best wrong number EVER. He is everything I wanted in a Dr....kind, compassionate, super personality, he takes his time, talks, pays attention to what I'm saying....love him!!!!!!!!
i'm glad i was able to see the doctor and get the help i needed. good experience
Everyone was polite, caring and knowledgeable. Made me feel comfortable and at ease. Pleasant office and staff.
I do not like the fact that if I just mention one thing to the doctor, it goes on my chart and then every other doctor that I see, they see the same thing. So no, I'm not happy with that.
Love Dr Herrel
Dr. Herrel was great. I love talking to him Thank you

The Dr Herrel and his staff were great. They didn't rush through the visit and listen to all my concerns.
Justin Herrel is a great doctor. I liked him so much from the first time I saw him. He's now our primary family care for myself and my wife. My only complaint is that it takes two months to get in to see him when I need to make an appointment or I have to pay the copay to go see him at the urgent care if and when he's working. Otherwise, he's a fantastic, fantastic practitioner.
The doctor and staff are great
Dr Herrel is A OK
Dr. Justin Herrel and his awesome staff has always treated me with respect, kindness and compassion.
This was my first appointment with this facility. I was looking to change primary Dr's. That is the reason I had to wait so long for an appointment. Everyone was very nice and professional. This is going to be my new dr
I had a great experience
It was my first time meeting with Dr. Herrel. He was patient, detailed, very smart, and it was a pleasure. He's going to be my permanent doctor moving forward. I highly recommend him. What a wonderful doctor.
My doctor was very helpful with the information I asked him and very knowledgeable of the it also.
This was my first visit there but I will say I was impressed by the professionalism of the entire team. I felt welcomed. The office was clean and spacious which I like. I love that you have an in house phlebotomist. That's very helpful. It was a great experience.
The visits are always very timely. Each staff member friendly and attentive. Nobody really likes to go to the doctors,but this is always a comfortable and calming experience.. thanks Dr Herrel
Sraff and Dr are always helpful and kind. Never wait and usually appointment is complete before its actual time.

Great staff and doctor.
Dr Herrel and staff are the Best!
Thank you.
Dr. Herrel is a wonderful physician. He is kind, listens to your questions/concerns and gives thoughtful answers. He is up to date on the latest developments as far as emerging drugs and treatments. I would not hesitate to recommend him and feel grateful to have him as my PCP.
I have been to many Drs and been so disappointed l am happy to finally find Dr Herrel. He makes me feel comfortable and listens. As far as the office...I do wish the phone system was easier and directly to the office. I also was EXTREMELY unhappy to see Hackensack has brought back the mask mandate. Have we learned nothing, if anything my right to decide. It was during well visits and no reason at all for masks. I feel bad for your staff. This definitely makes me think twice about staying. I love Dr Herrel but unhappy with Hackensack Meridian
I have found a doctor I can talk to, who listens to me, and has an office a little over a mile away.
