    Dr Heller is awesome in reviewing options and reviewing the issue each time. I was very pleased with a doctor that gave such a good explanation of the issue and gave all options. Very impressive to put the explanation in a manner that was easily understood.

    Dr Heller was awesome. He went through the MRI in detail and explained the problems in terms l could understand. He even drew a diagram to make it easier. He explained the options and agreed to start with physical therapy, then possible injections and surgery as a last resort. I was very impressed with his explanations and speaking to both me and my daughter. I had questions but he answered them before l needed to ask. I was very impressed!

    Dr Heller explained everything from the diagnosis through worst case scenario and best case scenario. He took time to review my MRI with me, show me what's normal and not and the reasons he wants to take the approach he is taking. He was clear, concise, and easy to have a discussion with.

    I will ALWAYS recommend MultiCare Nerosurgery & Spine Center to my circle of people. We are people who are able to afford the for-profit services at NW Specialty Docs. Dr Heller exceeded the services by that group by at least a mile.

    Dr. Heller is the BEST. He cares about each person and listens to all your questions and concerns. I'm coming back to him for a second surgery because he cares and as far as I'm concerned he's THE BEST!
