Best doctor ever. She's passionate about what she does. She listens patiently and answers your portal questions right away. She's funny and easy to talk to, and above all sincere about giving me the best care as a patient. Thank you Dr. Hefele
Loretta L.
Everyone gets a bit nervous when it's time for a doctor visit. Dr. Hefele and her nurse always put me at ease. She takes the time to go over my medications and how they help me. She explains everything so clearly.
Beverly C.
Dr. Hefele is a compassionate professional. As my new physician, I'm extremely happy with her thoroughness and attention to detail. She listens to you as a person, not a number. I've recommended her to my whole family now that our physician of 18 years is retiring.
Shan S.
Dr. Hefele is wonderful. I have a number of medical conditions, and she always treats me with compassion and kindness. Her nurse, Cathy, is also lovely, kind, and knowledgeable. They never make me feel rushed or like just a number.
