Went to see Dr. Karen Heiden twice. Her assistant was awesome, she was not. First visit was rushed, she didn't ask me any questions and gave me terse answers to mine. Never even addressed one issue (trigger finger). She injected my wrist (for De Quervain's tenosnyovitis). 5 min office visit was $220 all by itself (not including injection)! Second follow up visit three weeks later (another $220 for maybe 10 min). She just said "you need surgery" and was uninterested in my concerns about recovery turnaround in regards to her surgical approach. Still never spoke to me about the trigger finger problem. She also wanted to do the surgery in the hospital, with sedation and a Covid test, which would cost way more than an in office wide awake surgery. I went to another surgeon for a second opinion. He listened to my concerns, addressing each one thoroughly and explained the entire procedure. He also covered the trigger finger issue. Am planning on having surgery with him done in his office.
