Dr. John Timothy Heffernan V, MD

Dr. Heffeman was very approachable, easy to talk to and knowledgeable. Was interested on my needs and concerns. He explained all my questions with callers and I did not feel rushed. I am going to have surgery by him soon and I believed it will go well. The front staff was prompt but straight to business, the nurse and x-ray technician were wonderful. .

This was a follow up appointment to discuss my injured shoulder, changes to the injury and treatment options. Dr Heffernan is very approachable, a thoughtful listener and is superb at explaining the physiology of the shoulder and treatment options. After this follow up consult, I feel comfortable continuing with my PT exercises on my own knowing that we have options for surgery down the road, should my injury start negatively affecting my quality of life. I have about confidence in the medical care and advice I continue to receive from Dr Heffernan and everyone at PSO!

Dr. Heffernan was very informative and very kind. He listened to my symptoms and was very clear of our next steps. I highly recommend him for your Dr.

Dr.Heffernan did an accurate diagnosis. What was totally unacceptable was the 59 minute wait in the exam room with no information, no checking in on me and no apology.

Excellent doctor, very informative and professional. I highly recommend

Dr.Heffernan explained all about my surgery and listened to my concerns which helped me. He made me feel very comfortable about the outcome. His nurse at the office is always in such a great mood and happy!

The whole office was exceptionally nice, helpful, and professional.

I always enjoy seeing Dr. Heffernan and his staff. They’re always so welcoming into the office. Dr. Heffernan just gets right down to business and took some x-rays and figured out that nothing was ripped or broken and I just need to ice my arm and put some cream on it.! thank you Dr. Heffernan. You’re the best.

What a great guy very understanding very knowledgeable

Dr. John Geffernan is spectacular! He is an excellent surgeon. The woman who takes x-rays at Puget Sound Orthopedics in Gig Harbor saw my x-rays just days after surgery and said, “Perfect! Everything I see from this young surgeon is the same: outstanding!” Dr. Heffe4rnan is just plain excellent: as a surgeon and as a communicator. Some surgeons do good work, but their ability to relate to patients is wanting. That is not the case with Dr. Heffernan. He’s an all-around 10!! Ann Fessler Gig Harbor
