When she's not at the office, Dr. Herman loves spending time with her family. She and her husband Matt, a local orthodontist, spend most weekends wrangling their two little girls Olivia and Nora. Dr. Herman grew up surfing in California, but is more likely to throw her back out with elaborate gardening projects these days. She still loves to ski and always has her nose in a book.
