In patients' words
"Dr. Wheat had immediately made me feel comfortable. Dr. Wheat's communication skills are the best. Your not just a number."
— Healthgrades patient review of Dr. Heather Wheat"He doesn’t listen and likes to play God. I hope he reads this review and really starts to listen to patients and their families instead of thinking he knows what’s best."
— Healthgrades patient review of Dr. Mohammed Hamid"The glowing reviews on here must be fake. I met with this guy in Stage 3 kidney failure and he literally did a test... said my GFR was okay so there was nothing wrong and sent me away. I wound up in the hospital a week later."
