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.

Dr Hepner is awesome and his staff is very efficient & caring as well

Awesome Dr
Dr Hepner saved my life 23yrs ago. I have so much respect for him. I have bragged about him all of these years and will continue to. He explains things in terms anybody can Understand. He shows genuine concern and kindness when dealing with your situation. I appreciation Dr Timothy Hepner so much and I’m glad he is my Dr once again.

Dr. T. Hepner
So thankful to have an excellent surgery. He is caring, continues to see me annually , do ultrasounds, blood work. Performed biopsy before surgery deemed it necessary to remove right thyroid and monitor left thyroid to evaluate nodules. I’m so thankful as my body continues to do necessary work with a little boost from very low dose medicine. Very professional and personable.
