Great Doctor
Dr Hefley put me back together again after a bad fall. He has replaced both hips and knees. I highly recommend Dr Hefley and his team.
Explained well. Very aware of other underlying problems. Very thorough. Very personable
Always sees you quickly and Is ready with the answers and Plan.
Very knowledgeable and up to date on the latest procedures.
Outstanding surgeon! I was in a lot of pain, and that 24/7 pain is now gone in my right hip! I appreciate Dr. Hefley for his great work, attention to detail, and making me feel better about getting a hip replacement! It was not an easy decision even though I was in extreme pain and my hip was in bad condition! I had been dealing with it for about 6 years and now that I have had it done, I should have done it sooner! I can’t thank Dr. Hefley enough for a job well done! A true artist on replacements for the human body! Also the staff at the Arkansas Surgical Hospital were friendly and very helpful when help was needed! Also a special thanks to Kenny (PA) for opening the door for me to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Kenny was a key element to the beginning process of myself and probably everyone who steps into Dr. Hefley’s office! Thanks again Dr. Hefley for you, and everyone for being in the right place at the right time! Keep it Rolling!
Michael was great. Didn’t see Hefley.
Pretty awesome experience and very good attitude
