Reviews
He was thorough going over all lab results and discussing what future treatment entails.
Pleasant and timely
Even though I was the last appointment and the clinic was quite backed up, I always appreciate Dr. Higgins. He exudes a degree of compassion which is not common among most physicians. He explains all questions and is very professional.
He explained your medical condition in layman terms
Dr. Higgins is a pretty terrific Doctor, who put four stents in my husband’s heart twelve years ago. He’s very detailed and listens carefully to his patients. He’s very knowledgeable and thorough. He almost always has a smile in his face, and makes you feel comfortable talking to him. My husband and I like him very much!
