  • The appointment resulted in a diagnosis of pneumonia and the antibiotics allowed my son to eventually get some rest after several days of being unable to sleep due to coughing fits. Dr. Heinert also allowed us to set a follow up visit which provided peace of mind knowing I didn't need to just guess that he was better.

  • We love Dr. Heinert! He's thorough, communicates well, and even when my son is being a wild monkey, Dr. Heinert maintains composure to get through the visit. He is also always able to pull things up if I have a question from a previous visit or another provider.

  • The doctor was incredibly thorough and didn't dismiss any of my concerns. He ended up diagnosing something that may have been missed by someone who wasn't as thorough and didn't spend as much time trying to identify the source of the problem.

  • Very courteous and kind. I appreciate that I was asked about any concerns and/or questions I had not only at the beginning of the visit, but the end as well. My son was at ease despite it being his first visit with this doctor. Instead of being information overload, he took his time to discuss topics and future appointments.

  • Dr Heinert addressed our concerns during this visit and had the appropriate ability to discuss challenging subjects with our older teenager. His approach and bedside manner was very good at putting our son at ease during an honest and frank discussion about his health. He had balance and took careful consideration not to alienate while also assessing him and providing the necessary information needed. We were very satisfied.
