I am so glad I chose Dr. Heifetz as my new primary physician when I moved to Oceanside. She is very sweet, thorough, and has even caught health issues that other doctors have missed. She always returns my calls and does not order unnecessary labs like my last doctor did. My prescriptions are always ordered on time. I highly recommend her!!

Dr Heifetz has always shown great care, compassion for my 99 yr old mother. She has followed up on referrals when needed, and communicates with her as a person, not an "old lady." I highly recommend her as a family doctor!

Dr. Heifetz oversees both my elderly parents care and I find her to be very thoughtful, she takes plenty of time listening to their comments and pays attention to their feelings. She has done a very good job managing their healthcare. She also has been very strong but respectful in advising my elderly father to give up driving, which helped the family very much.

Dr. Heifetz is a very good doctor who listens to her patient and follows up on their outcome. She has excellent bedside manner and is easy to talk to. She is new to a practice that I have been using for many years, and I think she is a great fit. I hope she will continue for many more years.
