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.

Lacking. Brusque. Condescending.

I have seen him for over 30 years. He is compassionate and listens well with the best bedside manner possible. I never feel rushed in his office. He truly gives you his time and attention.

I saw Dr. H for a colonoscopy and EGD. I am also a nurse. I chose to see him out of this group because of his bedside manner and respect he shows to the nurses and his staff. I would recommend him to anyone needing a GI MD.

Dr H. is probably one of the most compassionate MDs I have ever met, and he is excellent, maybe to much so. I arrived for my 11 am appt at 10:45, only to find he was running 6 patients behind. I have complex PTSD, and am currently withdrawing from certain medicines due to new federal insurance guidelines, and could not wait for several hours, so I asked to reschedule. This was 2/7/2019. Next available 4/25/2019. Otherwise go to ER.... Office staff could give better accompdation, not his fault.

I agree the phone system sucks. I seriously needed a doctor's note for medical clearance and the phone system says they open at 8:00. I called between 8:00 and 8:05 and 'still closed'. When I pressed 3 to talk to the message system, she told me they open at 9:00. Very frustrating. The doctors themselves are excellent but their phone system makes me beyond irritated

Dr. Heine is friendly but focused on pertinent information. His staff is fine and their new offices are so much nicer. I think I've done 3 colonoscopies with Dr. Heine and have not had a problem. ahortly after the procedure Baptist sends you his report, complete with pictures. Then you go back in tywoi weeks to discuss results with Dr. Heine in person.

Dr Heine cares very much about the health of his patients. He always listens to symptoms and tries to get to the root of the problem. I never feel rushed or as if my concerns are petty or stupid. I have had two colonoscopies under his care and both times I was back to normal immediately. I had no lingering pain or discomfort.

Their phone system basically sucks. You cannot get through to make an appointment and the last time I actually did get through the scheduler hung up on me when I couldn't tell her when the date of my last visit was. Finally had to drive to the office to make an appointment and then sat in the waiting room 45 minutes without even being called back. That would have most likely been another 20 or 3o minutes. Apparently they don't think the patients time is valuable.
