Patient Reviews
Jun 07, 2024
I loved Dr. Heit. Everyone at the surgical center was knowledgeable, helpful, and kind. He is a jokester which I have read some comments that people don't appreciate that, but I find it comforting that he shows a human side and is trying to make light of a slightly embarrassing procedure. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Thank you to Dr. Heit and the entire Ridgedale Surgery Center staff!
