  • 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.

  • Dr. Heinert is always so thorough which is appreciated. What really stands out to me is how he is sure to interact with the kids in an age appropriate way and includes them in the conversation about their care. He also encourages participation in the appointment (using positive reinforcement like fist bumps) and allows the kids to interact with the tools he is using which eases some of the apprehension and nerves they have at these appointments. Not every provider takes the extra time and I think it truly makes a difference in the experience for the parents and the children. Thank you!

About the Patient Experience Rating System

The Patient Experience Rating is an average of all responses to the care provider related questions shown above from our nationally-recognized Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. Patients that are treated in outpatient or hospital environments may receive different surveys, and the volume of responses will vary by question. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5 with 5 being the best score. We are committed to true transparency. However, to ensure the comments are fair and correctly attributed, we review each one before posting to the website. We exclude entire comments that disclose patient’s protected health information, are off-topic, or include other confidential or inappropriate content. Comments will appear on provider bios only if providers have a minimum number of comments. Comments are shared internally for education purposes to ensure that we are doing our very best for the patients and families for whom we are privileged to care. The comments are submitted by patients and families and reflect their views and opinions. The comments are not endorsed by and do not reflect the views of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.
