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 Terp Prostate surgery with Dr. Heineman in April 2021.. He explained the process clearly, and assuredly. The surgery was such that I did not need painkillers afterwards. Dr Heinenman told me about the aftermath, what I can expect. He was spot on! Within 2 months I was back to being as good as I ever was. Streams, not trickles. Eventually, no medications. Playing pickleball for 90 minutes without hitting the port-a-jon. All good!

Decided nothing was wrong woth me based off one test that others had performed. That being said i still cant perform any sexual function and the good doctor refuses to answer my phone calls, and just rwcently rescheduled my next appointment to mid November from aug 17. He also lied to my face/on my chart If you have a serious injury save yourself the trip and just go to RI hospital. But if you just want a check up he takes insurance. Just hope that there is nothing for him to find cause he wont
