I love speaking with patients about concerns they have about their eyes and vision but have never obtained a satisfactory answer. I also love solving patient's vision problems, regardless of how big or small.
"I have always had a fascination with vision and eyes. As a younger person I witnessed first-hand, how much my family optometrist helped members of my home. He played a major role in my family member’s quality of life. That has inspired me to try to make a difference in people's day-to-day life as well."
Excellent at talking through the process and explaining the why behind recommendations. I left feeling confident in the care I received.
Dr Hein was very kind and quick; however was disappointed when discussing my eye concern that he was not able to provide much information on it. He did refer me to another eye specialist.
Very caring. Provided answers to my questions.
Very knowledgeable!
Dr Hein is always very nice and explains everything.
Real nice guy.
Very thorough
I wish I knew how to address my question s. Ophthalmology is not my expertise.
Absolutely phenomenal!
Very personable and practical.
