      I work in healthcare and as a first time mom am very careful about finding the perfect fit for my child. This was our first visit with this pediatrician and I am happy to say he met and exceeded my expectations already. We have changed insurance providers to Northbay, after a not so great experience elsewhere, so I now finally have high hopes that my daughter will be in great hands for healthcare! What a relief! Thank you!!

      I have been coming to this doctor's office for almost 10 years now. I have two children that see Dr. Hewitt and the other doctors when our doctor is not present and they're all great and I've never had anything to really complain about. And I appreciate the doctors we see that aren't even the ones that are our doctors. So yeah, good experience. Thank you.

      Dr. Heeren and Kathy are our favorite duo. We travel a whole hour and a half just to see them for our daughter's doctor's appointment. We've never had any issues with them. As a matter of fact, I have recommended them to so many people in my time of being a parent, and I will continue doing so because they give outstanding service. I'm comfortable. I'm safe. My daughter is safe. They are very trustworthy adults, individuals, professionals. I'm very satisfied and will continue to go there for as long as we can. Thank you.

      I look forward to my visits with Dr. Heeren and his kind Medical Assistant. They are always so gentle, warm, and welcoming. They are both very encouraging and informative. I appreciate his approach to my child's care. He see's both of my children and even when my eldest is at school during my youngest child's appointment, he makes it a point to ask how she is doing. Having this pediatrician makes me feel hopeful and lucky at the same time. This experience made me feel like I am doing a great job, but also informs me what I have to look forward to and some near future goals for my child's care. As long as Dr. Heeren is here we are lifetime NORTHBAY patients.
