The provider was upfront about her experience and that she was moving to another location. She was thorough and looked at my whole history to determine what was going on with my health. She ordered necessary tests to find more information. She listened to my concerns and was honest about what I needed.

I am very happy to be a patient of Heather Herbst's. However, I am also very happy to be relocating to another office. My visit was for 10:15 am. I checked in at 9:55, but was not seen until almost 11:30. I asked the desk if Heather was in because of how long I had been waiting. They assured me she was and said that she only has one room for that day, and was in with a patient. I wanted to reschedule, but she had nothing for when I was available. So I stayed. It would've been nice if ONE of the 4 women at the desk had let me know that she was running behind. They never communicated that to me. Boo on their end. I think they should have more communication with the patients in yhe waiting room. Totally uncalled for waiting that long! So happy to be following Heather to her new location
