Dr. Nath is an excellent doctor. She’s very thorough and ensures you that she’s here to help make you feel better. Highly recommend Dr. Nath.
Dr Nath takes her time and explains everything and she is very concerned with my health
Always a good experience with the care providers.
Dr. Heather Nath and her whole staff is amazing! Highly recommend
I appreciate her working with prescriptions but she said she was going to do a hospital injection but then changed her mind because of money I believe. It’s the first time I’ve ever felt she chose money over a patient. Truly made me feel awful. I left there sobbing, begging for help only to be sent on my way crying in pain. Awful. Money over care. I’m so sad.
Excellent at what she does!!
Dr Nath and her staff are always pleasant, informative and attentive to any needs.
I've been seeing heather for in\nJections for years good Dr
Dr Nath is alright but it feels like she rushed through my appointment and didn't really care about me as a patient. I understand that she is extremely busy since losing her NP but I just didn't feel like I was listened to all that much.
She understood my issue had to review of images, etc., and identified a procedure that is new and potentially promising
