Upper Echelon Medical 1440 North Harbor Boulevard, Fullerton, CA 92835

"A Beacon of Compassionate Care! After years of feeling overlooked by my previous healthcare provider, I decided to venture into the realm of Direct Primary Care/Concierge medicine. Initially skeptical, my diligent research led me to Upper Echelon Medical, where Dr. Marisse Herrera's approach felt like a breath of fresh air. From the outset, Dr. Herrera's warmth and attentiveness made me feel genuinely seen and heard, a stark contrast to the rushed interactions I'd grown accustomed to. Unlike any doctor I've encountered, she delved into aspects of my health emphasizing a whole body approach to care that extended far beyond the immediate symptoms that I went in for - cough and congestion. Dr. Herrera's concern for my overall well-being, including sleep, exercise, diet, and mental health, truly epitomized the essence of what I feel healthcare should be. I felt safe, nurtured and cared for. Her comprehensive care and the time she dedicated to our appointment (over an hour!) underscored a genuine passion for her patients' health and happiness. The expertise in osteopathic therapy, particularly the OMT technique, provided immediate and remarkable relief for my sinus issues. After weeks of discomfort and sleepless nights, I fell asleep at 8:30 pm that night and had an amazing sleep! I experienced significant improvement overnight following my appointment with Dr. Herrera, a testament to her effective treatment and advice. The serene and welcoming atmosphere of the practice, coupled with the professionalism and kindness of the staff, further enhanced my experience, making the visit a pleasure. What's more, the convenience and affordability of obtaining prescriptions directly from the practice was an unexpected and highly appreciated benefit, adding another layer of satisfaction to my overall care experience. In Dr. Marisse Herrera and Upper Echelon Medical, I found not just a healthcare provider but a caring ally in my journey towards optimal health. I wholeheartedly recommend Upper Echelon Medical and Dr. Herrera to anyone seeking a doctor who truly cares and excels in their profession. This practice has not only met but exceeded my expectations, embodying what it means to receive truly compassionate and comprehensive care."

"Dr. Herrera did an office visit for a family member of mine who had extreme complex condition and on the verge of passing away. Dr. Herrera spent more than 2 hours with us going over options. Not only did she extend utmost professionalism as a provider but her countless follow up to give advice and also to see how our family member is doing genuinely warms the heart. In a age where we are just a number to the medical system. It's a thrill to see real patient care still exist, and is well very alive with Dr. Herrera and her team. Thank you again Dr. Herrera for going above and beyond the call of duty for us. I wish I live in the area because Upper Echelon is really a no brainer for anyone who can afford the low membership fee."

"I wasn’t sure what to expect the first time I came in. It sounded too good to be true. I even caught myself talking fast because I was so used to being rushed by my previous doctors. But I’m grateful that I came. And I am very appreciative of Dr. Marisse. She’s professional, knowledgeable, patient, and caring—everything you want your doctor to be. You leave feeling heard and with a game plan to get better. I highly recommend this place."

"I will definitely and strongly highly recommend this practice. I am so impressed and fully satisfied with the level of care I got with dr Marisse. I felt like I was been treated with a friend who cares a lot about me and my health. Unlike many other drs, she took time to ask me questions and stressed on every detail. Her choice of medications tells me how much she really cares about my health. Thanks Dr Marisse for everything you have done. You are a very good Dr with a great heart for your patients."

"My first experiences with Dr. Herrera have been very comforting. She seems to really care about my health and wellness. I’m looking forward to making some specific changes she has mentioned that will save money and improve the way I feel. Having the full attention of my doctor isn’t something I’m used to, but I love it so far. Dave"
