FAQs
What treatment does Dr. Hernán Cortés offer for osteoarthritis in Floridablanca and Bucaramanga?
Dr. Hernán Cortés, a physician and surgeon with 23 years of experience, takes an integrative medicine approach to managing osteoarthritis. His approach combines neural therapy, homeopathy, herbal medicine (phytotherapy), and nutritional guidance. The goal is to relieve pain and joint stiffness, particularly in the knees, hands, and spine, while improving mobility. Each treatment plan is tailored to the patient following an individual assessment at his offices in Floridablanca or Bucaramanga.
What is neural therapy and what is it used for?
Neural therapy involves injecting small amounts of local anesthetics, such as procaine, into specific points of the body to influence the nervous system. Dr. Hernán Cortés uses it as a complementary approach to managing chronic pain associated with conditions such as osteoarthritis, arthritis, fibromyalgia, carpal tunnel syndrome, rotator cuff disorders, tennis elbow, and postherpetic neuralgia. The procedure is performed by the physician during a consultation. Patients with allergies to local anesthetics should inform the doctor before treatment.
Can postherpetic neuralgia (pain after shingles) be treated with neural therapy?
Postherpetic neuralgia is nerve pain that persists after a shingles outbreak (herpes zoster). In Floridablanca and Bucaramanga, Dr. Hernán Cortés offers neural therapy as a complementary treatment option that may help reduce this pain. It can be combined with the treatment prescribed by the patient's attending physician. Results vary from person to person, which is why each case is individually assessed during a consultation.
Can homeopathy and herbal medicine replace the medications I am currently taking?
You should never stop taking prescribed medication without medical advice. As a qualified physician, Dr. Hernán Cortés reviews each patient's current treatment and may recommend homeopathy and herbal medicine as complementary approaches. Some patients may be able to reduce their use of pain medication over time; however, any changes must be made under medical supervision.
How many sessions will I need, and how long does it take to see results?
The number of sessions and the time needed to see results depend on the condition being treated, how long the symptoms have been present, and the patient's individual response. During the initial assessment, Dr. Hernán Cortés establishes a personalized treatment plan, including the recommended number of sessions and follow-up appointments. Managing chronic conditions such as osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia generally requires an ongoing treatment process rather than a single session.
Is Dr. Hernán Cortés a qualified physician?
Yes. He graduated with a medical degree in Medicine and Surgery from Universidad Libre in 2002. He holds a diploma in neural therapy from Universidad Santiago de Cali and a university-level specialist qualification in biological and naturopathic medicine from the University of León. He has also received training in homeopathy, nutrition for obesity and overweight management, and family medicine. This background allows him to combine conventional medical assessment with complementary therapies.
What happens during the first consultation, and does he offer home visits?
The first consultation includes a comprehensive medical assessment, a review of the patient's medical history and symptoms, and an evaluation of any previous test results. Based on this information, a personalized treatment plan is developed. Patients are encouraged to bring previous test results, X-rays, and a list of their current medications. Dr. Hernán Cortés provides private consultations for adults and older adults. He also offers home visits in Bucaramanga and Floridablanca.
What other conditions does Dr. Hernán Cortés treat?

Reviews
Estoy muy agradecida con el dr Hernán Cortés, pues desde que empecé las terapias neurales con el, he sentido mucho alivio en las partes que me ha tratado, y lo más importante es que he disminuido la toma de medicamentos para el dolor. Lo he recomendado a mis familiares, quienes también se encuentran muy satisfechos. Gracias Doctor
Excelente profesional con amplia capacidad de escucha por sus pacientes, lo que genera que pueda proponer un tratamiento médico acorde a la necesidad de cada diagnóstico. En mi caso particular tratamiento por temas hormonales
Como doctor excelente medico, atiende muy bien, llevo años como paciente, es muy humano y de verdad lo recomiendo como médico y ser humano.
Estuve en cita médica general con el dr Cortés, y me sentí tan bien, que seguir asistiendo a más citas y controles por dos años. Tenía diferentes dolencias y me ayudó mucho con su conocimiento y además por su actitud y humanismo. Es muy bonito encontrar médicos que se preocupen por brindar su atención con mucho respeto, ética y humanidad.
Me estaba bajando demasiado de peso tenía (58kg) y mido 1.72m; todas las comidas me hacían daño, tenía estreñimiento crónico, náuseas, acidez estomacal. Acudí al Dr. Hernán Cortés, quien me dió un tratamiento con medicina, naturista y homeopática que me sanó. Hoy estoy comiendo muy bien, la comida no me hace daño, subí de peso peso a 72kg, estoy evacuando o haciendo del cuerpo todos los días, ya no tengo acidez estomacal ni náuseas. Estoy y me siento muy bien. Recomiendo al Dr. Hernán Cortés para que su sistema digestivo se sane. Muchas gracias Dr. Hernán Cortés por su excelente tratamiento.
