    My family and I went to Dr Enrique for decades but he is now retired and his practice closed. I…read morebegan seeing Dr Enrique in my 20's and I am now in my 60's. Having said that, his bed side manner is direct and not for everyone, but I always appreciated his no- nonsense approach to the truth. Regardless, the man was brilliant at treating me and my family. There was never an ailment or medical condition he did not diagnose 1st or correctly for me, (and I have had many severe upper respiratory issues; asthma; cardio vascular disease, diabetes, odd allergies no one could diagnose or treat; and Dr Enrique even prescribed preventive actions to prevent severe symptoms during peak allergy periods and during cold & flu seasons ! Over the years I have passed these techniques/ strategies to others and have helped Dr Enrique create his own sample community of healthier people battling my same issues in challenging environments. Dr. Enrique took great care of my family of 5 for 2 generations. Enjoy your retirement, Dr. You have earned it. Thank you for the years of great medical care and attention!

    where to start? the front desk girl told me she doesn't weigh the patients because girls don't tell…read moreeach other their weight. I'm all for not weighing myself, but my doctor is the one person who should know this. they never had me fill out my medical history. the same girl told me information about another patient who was there at the same time! I have been billed twice for a full visit showing I had no insurance, when I do, and have given it to them every time I was there. I called and asked for a refill, they argued with me that I never had that medication. I have, and John Muir filled it no problem. I left a message asking for Dr Enrique to call me so I could tell him the above, I have never gotten a call back. Stay away!!!

    Dr Heo has been my primary Physian for over five years. She is a wonderful doctor who truly…read morelistens to her patients concerns. She is very thoughtful and kind. I'm a Registered nurse and highly recommend this doctor. She was also very caring and understanding when my mom passed away and helped me through the grieving process.

    Today, I sent my 20-year-old daughter to Dr. Heo for her annual exam after researching internists…read morewho received excellent reviews. This would be my daughter's first visit with Dr. Heo as a new patient, as we recently moved from Chicago. It was difficult to find a female doctor who receives good reviews and is accepting new patients. I was surprised to learn about the office visit. First, Dr. Heo questioned why my daughter would travel all the way from Lafayette to Brentwood to see her. This sort of question would put anyone on their heels. This disconcerting question, which puts the patient in a defensive posture, is no way a way to begin a doctor-patient relationship or what should be a proactive conversation. It makes the patient feel as if they should not be there. Dr. Heo then essentially phoned in the exam. She did not perform the head-to-toe evaluation typically performed at first-time office visits to establish a baseline. She did not ASK QUESTIONS (How much exercise? How is your diet? How is your home life? etc.etc). Oftentimes, patients are reluctant to "complain" or introduce perhaps what they are fearful would be minor issues. Especially if they are questioned about why they are there in the first place, and especially a young person, with whom one should take extra care to tease out facts. My shy daughter gets headaches (which she was reluctant to disclose - likely migraines - and which the doctor did not ask "any headaches? allergies? etc etc - I am asked these questions by my doctor). She did not find out that my daughter has a sprained ankle. She did not ask what every woman is asked - about the regularity of her menstrual cycles. Does she see an OB/GYN? She did not order lab tests to establish a baseline. She did not test her reflexes, balance, or joint mobility. She did not palpate her abdomen. She did not check for unusual moles. These are all the hallmarks of a first exam. Dr. Heo seemed to have determined that my daughter "looks healthy" and left it at that. Consequently, my daughter did not receive an "annual exam" from Dr. Heo. Dr. Heo concluded the "exam" by telling my daughter she herself does not like going to the doctor (wonderful role modeling) and said "next time" my daughter can just phone in. I don't think so. Dr. Heo already phoned in.
