He was very personable and straight forward about how he could and could not help me. He took time to answer my questions and explain what he saw in my knee. A very positive experience.

Review for Dr. Hefley

We are working on my left shoulder now. I won't go to any other shoulder specialist. And I've gone threw few.

Review for Dr. Abeler

Sociable, knowledgeable, good communications, listened well and attentive to my unique body issues that would be a factor going forward.

Review for Dr. Abeler

Dr. Hefley took the time to listen to my questions and concerns I had post hip replacement. He never seemed rushed and answered all my questions thoroughly. Great experience!

Review for Dr. Hefley

I need more time with Dr. Hefley. It feels to me that he is “exit seeking” from the get-go. I trust his skills and knowledge but feel like I need more time for comprehensive conversation, explanation, and advice.
