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.

He's professional, personable and bottomline is just great physician.

Dr. Heinser has been my Primary physician for more than 12 years and he is a very down-to-earth and caring doctor. Each visit results in an open dialogue where your questions are answered quickly. I have not had too many physicians in my lifetime but any doctor who calls you on a Sunday to check on you during an illness (and without provocation) is almost almost unheard of!

Discovering with a truly caring, knowledgeable physician only 20 minutes away turned a dispirited inquiry into a joyful experience. Here's a doctor who's giving you, not his computer, his full attention with seemingly limitless time. And he's relaxed, down-to-earth and humorous. It is easy to recommend him without qualification.

Dr Heinser is my primary physician. Not only is he very knowledgeable he has a very caring nature for a care giver. He takes his time and allows you to ask questions. If you have to see a specialist he keeps involved to ensure you keep getting the best care. I trust him so much I recommended my whole family to him.

Dr. Heinser knows his patients well, cares about each one, and follows up on the phone when starting a new treatment or protocol. He never seems rushed, but neither do I ever wait more than five minutes or so for my appointment to start. He seems to actually have fun talking to you—about health and non-health matters. He just enjoys people. Most importantly for a doctor, he diagnoses problems very accurately. I trust him completely, and I would recommend him without reservation.
