Christopher Heller, MD

I feel completely lucky that I was able to get surgery with Dr Heller- he is your reputation for excellent spine care- I hope you understand that.

Dr Heller is a wonderful doctor. I was diagnosed in the emergency room with a tumor in my brain, and he was my surgeon to remove the tumor the very next day. Thankyou to Dr Heller for a very good surgery to remove the tumor, and also a very good recovery. Dr Heller showed pictures of my scans and explained to me and my husband very clearly and in words we could understand what the problem was, where the tumor was, how he was going to perform the surgery, what to expect. He checked on me after surgery, and also came back with mri pictures after the surgery, and again very clearly showed us the results of the surgery, and helped us to know what the next steps should be. In this appointment, which was about 2 weeks after the surgery, he evaluated my recovery, explained what he saw, and removed sutures. I cannot thank Dr Heller enough.

Dr. Heller was patient listening to my questions and concerns. He answered any questions I had.

First time meeting Dr Heller. I've worked for plenty of Doctors. Dr Heller seemed like a genuinely good person.

Dr. Heller provided a comprehensive description of proposed surgery, possible problems, and recovery.

I had reservations about having someone that I didn't know do this sergury, but after visiting with doctor Heller, I was very comfortable with having him do this.

Very thorough. Discussed options taking into account my age and living situation.

I left feeling listened to and by the end our our discussion, my initial concerns were gone. I felt like I was in very professional and kind hands.

Dr Heller was very clear in his explanation of the MRI and proposed procedure. He explained a decision did not need to be made right then. Nice not to feel pressured to make a decision.

Dr Heller is amazing. From my first visit with him I felt heard and have received excellent care. He is the best neurosurgeon I have seen in 20 years with the condition I have.

Dr Heller was very thorough in is explanation of my situation.

Dr. Heller is a very good Dr. I wouldn't let anyone else do surgery on my back. He let me know exactly what needed to be done. Had a model of a spine and showed us what what he would be doing which was very helpful. He is one of the best doctors I have had.

Dr. Heller listened so carefully and then explained everything he saw on my MTI. H was very thorough and reassuring. I felt very reassured.

He listened very well and asked a lot of questions for me
