Dr. Brian Vassar Heil, MD
On my initial visit to Dr. Heil, I waited almost 3 hours for my consultation, despite being the only patient in the waiting room. I was very annoyed, and even scared after reading these negative reviews. I had a lipoma removed from my back. He was very professional, took the time to explain and answer questions the day of surgery. I am very pleased with his work and attitude. There was a problem with the antibiotic prescription that he gave me, so I called the office, and his PA called me back within 20 minutes with an answer. I am very confident with getting my upcoming tummy tuck with Dr. Heil. Excellent surgeon...he also got great reviews from the nurses at the hospital who see many of his patients.
