John C. Heffernan, DO

I am very pleased with the care that this provider provides!

Dr. Heffernan was professional and kind. Also, his RN was delightful. I look forward to years of care by this team.

He was a very kind doctor and I will continue to see him as my go-to doctor

Some questions are difficult to answer because this was a first time appointment with a new doctor and not enough time has transpired to comment on some topics. Because of the doctor shortage, getting an appointment with any doctor for any reason has a long wait. My visit with Dr. H was a very positive experience and all the supportive staff made it pleasant.

Was scheduled for my first appt next Feb. They were able to get me in much earlier. The Dr was very thoughtful.

Dr Heffernan and his staff were courteous, friendly and knowledgeable. I was treated with respect.

Dr. H is very nice and shows concern.

Very good

Excellent experience

Everything was great ? Thank you

The Dr seemed a lot more relaxer this time. It helped me to feel like he actually wanted to see, and help, me.

I have already referred others to Dr. Heffernan. I feel Dr. Heffernan is very knowledgeable and thorough.

Thank you for being such an excellent doctor!

Respectful; great balance of professional and personable presentation: kind. Good listener, great eye contact: asked pertinent and insightful questions; is not opposed to natural alternatives: that is . Not just. Big Pharma distributor.

Great

All good

This visit was an initial "new patient" meeting. As such, there were no major issues dealt with. Only a general discussion of my health and medications. I'll have a full physical next spring.

No problems or difficulties of note,

This is my first visit with this provider. From not knowing each other I guess the visit went okay.

My first time seeing my new doctor very satisfied

Dr. Heffernan is an outstanding primary care provider. He consistently delivers compassionate, attentive care, and his depth of knowledge is truly impressive. Whether addressing routine health concerns or more complex issues, he takes the time to listen, explain options, and ensure I feel supported every step of the way. His professionalism and empathy make me feel confident in their care. I highly recommend Dr. Heffernan to anyone seeking a provider who combines expertise with a personal, patient-centered approach!

I had a good first visit with Dr Heffernan. I think he will be a good doctor for me going forwards.

Dr. Heffernan seems to rely on facts (test results) and objective info and I appreciate that. He does provide good answers to my questions and I hope that my treatment plan will have good results.

Dr. Heffernan shows respect when you are explaining to him what you think is wrong. He listens, responds, cares, and I trust him. He cares about my well-being, and I am glad he is my doctor.

Issues were identified and treatment/referrals began immediately. I felt like my health and well-being were being taken seriously.I felt that I was treated with respect and that what I thought and felt were taken seriously.

As a new patient, his office did every thing possible to get me in when I received a cancer diagnosis

Dr. Heffernan is very good. He Listens and shows respect. He is very thorough, including ordering Lab work or tests. I Like him very well!

This was my first appointment with Dr Heffernan to establish him as my new PCP. He seems to be a very nice person.

Provider was on time, and well versed on my health history. Set up next visit when we were finished. Responds to my chart requests in a timely fashion. Personable and easy to talk with.

Excellent physician. Grateful he's my PCP

Dr.Heifferman is a great provider and listen to my concerns and is working well with specialty ptovider to ensure I get the best medical care. His nurse is also very courteous and professional. I truly believe I have a great medical team and have my best interest if medical care.

Really glad to have Dr. Heff looking after me!

I am so happy to finally have a primary doctor who is eager to listen and help me manage symptoms for my autoimmune disease. After 2 years of searching for a primary doctor, I finally feel heard.

Dr. Heffernan is very personable and kind to me.

Dr Heff has an excellent memory and is very knowledgeable. He cares about me as a patient.

I appreciate all the care you have available.

Good listener; went out of his way to find answer to hard question; instructions clearly explained

Getting established with doctor as my new PCP. I like him and he was thorough.

He listened to what I had to say.

Dr Heffernon understood my frustration and pain, I have been having severe anxiety due to chronic pain.

Dr. Heffernans and his staff are awesome I've had no bad experiences. Thanks to you all!

This was my first appt with Dr Heffernen. I am switching over from my PCP who is leaving the practice. Dr Heffernen didn't have my complete medical history or records because the office didn't get them yet. But he was very respectful and paid attention to whatever I said. He was very quick on the uptake and didn't need to spend too much time with the background info at this appt. He also ordered labs and bone density which I've never had. I have high confidence that he will be an excellent match for me. I've already recommended him to a friend of mine who is looking to switch her PCP.

Helpful and explains concerns in easy to understand manner.

I am absolutely satisfied with Dr. Heffernan!!

Very nice provider

Caring, knowledgable and friendly

I had a genuinely good experience with Dr. Heffernan. Providence and Walla Walla was lucky to recruit him, I only hope our local healthcare system can retain him which has been an issue within our small community.

Dr Heffernan is professional, thorough, and posses excellent patience!

All good no bad experience.

I am receiving the best care from my doctor he understands my illness and is trying to give me the best care he can.

All good from beginning to end. I find Dr Hefferman to be very attentive and responsive with a kind and caring banned. I trust him.

Key here is that I AM A NEW PATIENT, so this was my first visit. I had to wait a long time (2 mos) for an appt, but I was very impressed by Dr. Hef and so glad he took me on! I feel I am in good hands and appreciate the professionalism of the doctor, nurse, receptionist, x-ray tech and blood draw nurse. Can't wait to return!!

Very attentive and friendly.

My visit was what I expected. With respect and courtesy. But mostly my provider was a professional and took the time to heed my issues. Very well satisfied with all.

He answered all of my questions

I have always had good care With this provider.

I received updates on information and what was happening to get me to the next step of healthcare for my issued on the same day as my visit! Excellent!

Great care - always listens to my concerns

Dr. Heffernon was very personable, friendly, and was able to explain everything I needed to know. I am very grateful he is my doctor.

I like him. He seems to truly care to see to my needs

Since this was my first visit with Dr. Heffernan, some of the questions did not apply to my appointment. I was satisfied with my visit.

We are new patients to Dr Heffernan and we are very pleased with him and his nursing staff.

The Doctor that I saw was one of the most courteous, respectful, caring, understanding person that I've talked to. And he made me feel like I was part of his family. Can't say enough good things about this Doctor John Heffernan . I hope he is here is my doctor for a long time.

We waited over a year to get in as a new patient but are thrilled with the first visit! Dr. Hessermann was very attentive, especially given the extensive background and need in my mom's Healthcare! We left with a plan and feel very confident in her future healthcare management. We had her blood draw results within hours and a message from Dr. Hessermann as to what he was reco! Fantastic!!

All good!

It was my first visit, all the staff I saw were well above par and the first impression of the doctor I was highly impressed. He ordered a test my previous doctor in another state never did. He actually acted as if he wanted to be my doctor. I expected the visit to be less then 5 minutes and It was longer then expected. I actually saw his face and he asked questions that were not from a computer. He was very professional and walked me out. Most doctors are ok as the work for the paycheck. This doctor my first impression was he actually cared and wanted to help. If I got off topic he also got back on topic as sometimes my brain thinks faster then my talk as in he asks questions about the first concern before going to the next.

Good

All good

No complaints.

I needed a new care provider, and this one was recommended to me. I was pleased with the experience.

All was well. This was my initial visit with a new primary doctor after moving to Walla Walla area from Portland, Oregon.

Very good experience

All good! Awesome team!

This appointment was to meet my new doctor and, I was very impressed with him!!

This is my first time with your doctor. He was very informative. He already understood some of my conditions. I recommend him highly to other patients.

They treated me like they cared..

Very professional. Good bedside manner.

Very good visit and great conversation with the doctor.

Great care!

I am so thankful Dr. Heffernan took me as a patient. I am thankful he helped me with paperwork that I have been waiting to complete for almost a year. He showed compassion and I am so thankful for his kindness to me.

First time I saw this provider and it went smoothly

I felt very comfortable talking to Dr Heffernan. He was easy to talk to and I felt that he was interested in me. Thank you!

I like my new PCP

First visit with provider. So far good experience.

Since my husband and I were in the process of changing our medical care-givers and the wait-list was long, we were very pleased to be accepted into this practice. We have been appointed in many areas of medical concerns quickly and it's been a good transition.

Great

I am a returning patient to Providence. I really like Dr. Heffernan and am glad to be back.

I felt very comfortable and at ease taking to the Dr

Doc is an excellent communicator.!

As this was my first visit to establish him as my PCP I don't know very much about him. First impression was good and I believe I will be very happy with Dr Heffernan.
