Dr. Hekier was very thorough in his explanations and including me in the decisions process. Few drs. do this anymore and I appreciate the time spent w/me.

Dr. Hekier gave me ample time to discuss my concerns - explained in detail my test result - reassuring me all is OK! He details the CT scan "visually" - for me to clearly see AND understand the results.
