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 have a pancreatic cyst that Dr. Heavey monitors for me. Recently I had an issue with being seriously low in iron. Upon trying to find where the blood was disappearing to, I had an upper GI. It was clear then where it was going. Dr. explained that I had an extremely large hiatal hernia. There has never been a time when I am in his care that I feel anything but greatly protected and provided for in the best manner!!

Dr. Heavey was very nice and easy to talk to. He listened to all of the details of my issue and seemed very interested to solve the problem, not just treat the symptom. I am very impressed with him and highly recommend him.

I had my first appointment today with Dr. Heavey. He was incredibly compassionate to my situation. He listened intently to my symptoms, asked questions and then gave me his diagnosis with a plan for the future. I felt like I was heard and treated wonderfully. I would recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Heavey treated our mother while at St Clare Hospital - he was extremely knowledgeable, caring and informative. He has a very positive upbeat manner and he willingly answered all questions. He was very respectful and empathetic.

The staff is not great. When they tell you they are calling in a prescription and you need to start taking it immediately but they actually don't call it in is a bit aggravating exspecially when the new med can take up to 30 days to be effective. They also don't know how to return calls in a timely matter. I'm very disappointed with Dr. Heavey's staff. I really like Dr. Heavey as a doctor & I don't want to have to find a new doctor but if his staff continues to be this way I might have to.
