This was my first meeting with Dr. Hecker. He is exactly what I want in a doctor. Dr. Hecker is friendly, professional, and took time to answer all of my questions in language that I could understand. Most importantly, he seems to be very knowledgeable and caring.

Dr.Hecker is the most knowledgeable internal medicine practitioner we have been lucky enough to have as patients. We have been with him since he began at Advocate and are now traveling 60 miles round trip to see him and continue with him as patients. He is a fabulous diagnostician, knows needs and procedures like the alphabet. He is compassionate, witty and wise and the most perfect example of a polymath. NM is lucky to have secured his talents as are his former and new patients..

I like Dr. Hecker, my visit was relaxing, I didn’t feel rushed, which is so important. Dr. Hecker addressed all of my issues and listened to my concerns, really listened. He made many helpful suggestions regarding my arthritis. He’s also open to helping me find medications that will help other health issues.. I hope he stays there.

Dr. Hecker is the most intelligent, knowledgeable, internal medicine practitioner I have experienced in my 82 years. He probes until he is confident that I have given an answer he can work with to give a diagnosis; if he is uncertain about meds, he researches immediately in front of me. He is a walking encyclopedia, he doesn't miss a trick and he iexhibits confidence, he is , caring and compassionate and to top that, he has a wonderful manner and sense of humor.

The exam was a bit chaotic. He seemed to be struggling with multiple things in his phone (drug interactions, dictation software). There were things that he told me he was going to talk about, but then got distracted and didn’t. When I followed up after the visit about one of the recommendation not working, i was just told to give it more time and then had challenges all weekend as the on call doctor never called me back.
