I’ve been going to Dr. Heit for 20+ years. He’s easy to talk to (doesn’t rush in & out like other doctors), listens to any concerns, offers advice, treatment ideas and isn’t in a hurry to prescribe unnecessary meds!

I went in for a cyst that has been causing pain and he basically told me it's no big deal and I would just have to indefinitely deal with it. I will not be coming back! He didn't even offer a way to relive the pain.

I’ve been going to Dr. Heit for over 15 years. He has delivered my two babies, and I continue to see him for my annual visits. He is always so courteous and laid back. I really appreciate his knowledge and bedside manner.

I live 20+ miles away from Dr. Heit’s office, and there are plenty of OBGYNs closer to me. But I continue to see Dr. Heit because I appreciate how important it is to him to stay up-to-date on the latest care recommendations for pregnancy and gynecological care. Plus, he’s an all-around enjoyable person to talk to!

First time seeing Dr. Heit. Excellent doctor. Answered all of my question. Was very educated in my meds and knew what might react with a new med. I liked that he was looking out for me. The appointment went quickly and made me feel very comfortable.
