From my first meeting with Dr. Heitman, I was very impressed by his professionalism. He advised I needed a double bypass and he clearly explained the entire process to my wife and I. His calming manner and his obvious intelligence quickly soothed our fears and I immediately decided he was the heart surgeon for me. As soon as he finished my surgery, Dr. Heitman met with my nervous wife and he told her of the successful outcome, and he answered all of her questions. During the days I was recovering in the hospital, Dr. Heitman... read more

My fit and active 60 year old husband underwent a routine stress test only to learn he had 99% blockage in two arteries and 95% in a third. His cardiologist was adamant he needed immediate triple by pass surgery. After consulting with Dr. Heitman we learned it was far safer to wait five days as to avoid alcohol withdrawal complications. Dr. Heitman was nothing but professional, compassionate and reassuring. My husbands surgery, though terrifying was relatively uneventful and most importantly successful. Post surgery, Dr. Hei... read more

Dr. Heitman preformed a valve replacement and aneurysm removal as well as an ablation through open heart surgery for me a month ago. I interviewed many thoracic surgeons all over and always came back to him! He is at the very top of his field no doubt about this it’s why Lawnwood chose him to be the head of the Cardiac program. You would be extremely lucky to have him as your Dr.! He is sincerely dedicated and truly cares about his patients, he explains and answers all questions, I felt an ease with him I can’t explain and I... read more

Dr. Heitman preformed open heart surgery on my dad and was understanding with my parents trouble with English. He made sure they understand the surgery. He took great care of my dad before, during, and after his surgery. Dr. Heitman along with his friends in his office are very nice and welcoming. They do great things.

Dr. Heitman performed my quintuple coronary artery bypass graft. He took the time to explain the procedure to me before my surgery and spent time with me after my surgery. He made me feel comfortable in what is a very uncomfortable situation (open heart surgery). He listened to and answered every question my wife and I had. I owe Dr. Heitman a debt of gratitude. Dr. Heitman's two P.A.s, Chris and Mitch, did the same. They are an outstanding team. There was not a question left unanswered. I had my final post-op visit with Dr.... read more

Saw Dr. Heitman to do a coronary bypass. He really took the time to explain the procedure and address my concerns about my conditions (diabetic, vocal cord issues, kidney probs) in advance. The bypass was successful, and I saw him nearly every day while in Cardiac Intensive Care at Lawnwood. His two PA's were also friendly and very familiar with the case. I just finished my last checkup with him post surgery, and the results were great.

Dr. Heitman did open heart surgery on my wife. He did 4 bypasses and a pace maker. He explained everything clearly before and after the surgery. I would refer him and his team for any body that needs any type of open heart surgery. Dr. Heitman and his team spend as much time as the patient needs to explain any of there questions. The staff at Longwood Hospital was also great.
