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.

I had a Great visit with Dr. Heil.

Dr Heil is an excellent and care provider
I have been seeing Dr. Heil for over fifteen years and his demeanor with the patients is always satisfactory. H takes the necessary time to listen to the patients' concerns and always provides clear and insightful answers. He is currently managing a myriad of health issues ranging from heart disease to hypertension to many others. I will continue my scheduled visits with Dr Heil as he has always been there to accommodate my issues.

Spends time and listens
Dr Heil takes his time and addresses my concerns or questions to my satisfaction. He’s never abrupt or dismissive of what I say.

I am a longtime patient of Dr. Heil’s. He is personable and helpful, and seems to be upgrading his knowledge and skills regularly. My only request is that he look more at me and less at the computer during a visit. I know he’s often hurried, but it would be better for me to talk when he’s not typing and vice versa. That way, I know he’s hearing me and we won’t miscommunicate. The nurse who handled my history, etc., was good. I think her name is Maura or Laura (hard to hear with masks) as was the front line staff. It would be good to ensure that office staff keep their masks over their noses, both for sound medical practice since it’s required, and for modeling a good example for patients. Most of the office team did that, but one wasn’t doing that when I arrived.

Dr. Heil is the best doctor as a PCP.
When I contacted regarding my symptoms regarding heart problem and headache, he helped me to make an appointment ASAP. Dr. Heil checked everything in detail. Also, he solved problem and provided prescriptions. Dr. Heil is the best doctor as a PCP.

I called to ask about my husband and I becoming patients of Dr. Heil because my Mom and Aunt are both patients there. I was told that I needed to have our records faxed there so they could review them and see if we were a suitable fit. I was under the impression that the practice was there to fit us not the other way around. I was surprised at some of the negative reviews, not anymore! Needless to say we will be choosing another doctor.

Although Dr. Heil was a lot nicer than his colleague Dr. Fardo, he surprised me by bringing up a past hosp adm of mine where I 1st met Dr. F. Dr. H wasn't sure why I had been admitted-read the whole chart, not what Dr.F had told you. BTW, Dr. Heil (and your not so nice CRNP) one of the side effects of Lasix is urinary issues so don't make the pt feel like they're idiots for asking a question. I feel you & your colleague round at these hospitals for the money, not the patients.
