Dr Heard is an excellent Doctor. She takes time to listen to how you're feeling and asks thoughtful questions, then orders the tests needed to find a diagnosis. I feel that my health is in good hands.
Dr Heard really listens to me, and demonstrates both caring and competence. I think we have established best Dr-patient relationship I've experienced in at least 15 years.

Dr Heard is very professional and thorough when I see her. She always takes the time to answer all my questions.
Very good, received useful information and was referred to therapy.
Dr Heard really listens to me, and demonstrates both caring and competence. I think we have established best Dr-patient relationship I've experienced in at least 15 years.
Dr. Heard's assistants are very pleasant. Dr. Heard seems to be a good doctor and I am happy with her so far. Trying to get prescriptions refilled is much less that satisfactory. My pharmacy has had to give me a couple of days supply while waiting for a refill that sometimes never comes. One of the office staff even scolded me because she said they do not recognize the pharmacy's attempt to get a refill electronically, even though that is how the pharmacy has done it for many years. Good luck if you go with this office.
