He's an excellent surgeon. He has poor bedside manner on post op appointments. So I chose a great surgeon who isn't listening post op. I don't think I would send a friend to him without that warning.

Dr. Heim's skillful surgery relieved a symptom of right foot drop which had plagued me for over 12 years. I had no complications after the procedure, and a month out I have been walking over 3 miles per day.

I went to him because of having back pain, did an x-ray immediately, found the reason for the pain, and immediately ordered physical therapy. He was very direct with me and I appreciate that in a doctor.

The doctor did a physical exam and told me that I didn't need surgery so pretty much there was no reason for me to be seeing him, he said that I have a muscle injury and it's a large group of muscles so it's going to hurt, he just told me to follow up with occupational health and sent me on my way. He had no other help or advice or recommendations or referrals to anyone else

I have had 2 back surgeries, lower back and a spinal fusion. With each operation both he and his staff explained each and were more than willing to answer questions.

Knowledgeable and professional. He did not try to analyze without first gathering more data/images. Greatly appreciated that. Will gain more insight after we begin further review of all images. He appeared to understand my level of “normal� activity is more than just walking but training!

I was highly recommended to him and I am going on that recommendation but I feel the doctors need to stay on on place rather move from locations.
