This man is so great! My mother had an aortic aneurysm and it ruptured as she was being put on the surgery table and he worked diligently to save her. She came out of the operation, but damage was so bad she re- rusted and bled out. He was willing to take her back in but with the amount of blood loss we as a family agreed to avoid that so we could all tell her goodbye and that we loved her, because we knew if she went back in we wouldn't have that comfort. Dr Heuer assured us that the right choice was made. He said if I had questions about anything after the shock wore off just call him and he would bring me in and explain everything. Most Dr's wouldn't do that. I have the upmost respect for this man. God Bless him.

Dr. Heuer is an arrogant surgeon who is average and has had several jobs. He constantly fights with other doctors and has been "fired" from all previous jobs
