Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Heras was professional and extremely competent—best ENT I have encountered. The office is warm and inviting—not austere. I highly recommend Dr Heras and her staff.

Dr. Heras is one of the best doctors that I have had. She takes the time needed to solve the root of the problem. She changed me and my family's lives by suggesting we change our diet, and said that if that didn't work then surgery would be our best option. We now eat many more fruits and vegetables and have cut down on dairy and the amount of sickness in our house has vastly decreased, and NO SURGERY! She is a doctor that is motivated by healing, and I wish there were more doctors like her.

My child was not an easy patient. We saw Dr. Heras for ears that had wax build up and caused her pain. She kicked and screamed as Dr. Heras and her assisting staff tended to my little girl. I appreciated their calmness and professionalism. The assisting staff and administrative assistant were so kind. I felt awful regarding the way my child behaved and how it might of sounded in the lobby of Dr. Heras' office. Dr. Heras thank you for your patience with my child and giving her excellent care.

Dr. Heras diagnosed my family member with mild acid reflux. I found this odd after he reported years of severe choking episodes. Tonight he had the paramedics respond to yet another severe choking episode. Any doctor who doesn't refer their patients out appropriately or require any further diagnostic testing when they report these kinds of severe symptoms is irresponsible. Prevacid and a friendly smile doesn't help a man experiencing an esophageal restriction brought on by anxiety.

She is amazing and is so well rounded, she is happy to give medication when needed and also happy to tell you hot dogs and mac and cheese and soda may not be the best choice for a childs best health. Hello people if you want to be empowered and not feel victimized every time your child is sick look at what you are feeding them and ask does it fuel their bodies to fight infection. every time my daughter got a big over load of sugar and dairy she got sick, immune system cant candle that daily
