I’ve had Dr. Heitland to help me for 7 or 8 years now. I traveled a long way (about 60-70 miles in each direction) for my appointments because he’s the best...and worth it. He monitors my medication and treats me as the individual I am. One size does NOT fit all and I do appreciate his respecting this. He’s always available with a phone call and promptly responds to any issues I may be having ie with my Pharmacy or another doctor attempting to alter my medications. I highly recommend Dr. Christopher Heitland.

My sister has been a patient of Dr. Heitland for over 20 years. He is such a compassionate doctor and is extremely knowledgeable in his field. He is very highly regarded in the medical community. He always responds in a timely manner if need by. He goes above and beyond for his patients. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Heitland to anyone. He is truly a wonderful doctor and caring individual. Thank You

From the moment I met Dr.Heitland he made me feel comfortable unlike others in his field. He doesn't rush me although I talk a mile a minute anyway. When I do need to call him with something important he actually calls back the same day. Hmmm amazing!!! I am lucky to be one of his patients. Dealing with the extreme ups and downs with mental illness is no easy task. Dr. Heitland provides his education, experiece and the highest levels of help to those who want to help themselves. This in itself is no easy task either. I am extremely confident I am getting the mental health care I need. I have been stable now for several months and it feels good!
