Hello,
Dr. Heffron gets all 5 stars available. I was diagnosed with a cancerous liver tumor in June of 2017. Dr. Heffron removed the tumor in mid August and sent me back on the road of life. His staff is wonderful, his bedside manner is fun, and his surgical skills are unquestionably top notch. In fact, every person I met on my liver surgery adventure at Presbyterian St. Luke's in Denver was very friendly, helpful and competent.
Thanks Doc!

Absolutely Gifted hands! Grateful for his personable manner and I felt confident from first consult!! I came with cancer and eventually went home without the cancer!!!
I'm writing my review of Dr. Heffron under a family members Google account, as I, for some reason, cannot access my own Google account. My name is Michelle Johnson.
I had started suffering with major abdominal pain late last year and it wasn't until I had my first MRI, that the doctors noticed an anomaly attached to my liver. As it turns out it was an adenoma..."about" the size of a softball and definitely large enough to cause me constant discomfort.
After months of tedious back and forth with various gastroenterologists in Colorado Springs, I was finally given the green light to go to Dr. Heffron in early April.
When I met Dr. Heffron, I was instantly put at ease by his calm and endearing nature. My hepatobiliary surgery was scheduled for April 16th. On April 13th I received a call from his office informing me that due to a liver transplant, my surgery had been bumped to the following week...April 23rd. I completely understood.
In the week I had to wait for my surgery I read quite a bit about Dr. Heffron online and his accomplishments in the field of medicine are exceedingly impressive. I was calmed and reassured by everything I read about him.
The morning of the surgery came and I was ok...I was a little nervous, but that had nothing to do with Dr. Heffron, it had to do with the fact that I had never had such a major surgery before. I had the adenoma, my left hepatic lobe and my gallbladder removed...plus, a tiny portion of my right hepatic lobe was also removed.
It's now been about one month since my surgery and I am still in pain and in the process of healing, but I'm getting better everyday.
I want to give a huge shout out to the entire Porter Adventist hospital staff...from the sweet pastor that said he would pray for me to the incredibly skilled CNA's and RN's...my experience there was not nearly as scary as I thought it would be thanks to their care. I also want to thank Kelly, Dr. Heffron's assistant/receptionist, she's very skilled at what she does and she has been very kind and helpful to me the numerous times I called with questions before and after my surgery.
Lastly, I cannot say enough nice things about Dr. Heffron, he is by far the kindest, funniest, most down to earth doctor that I've ever had the pleasure of knowing.
He deserves the highest of praise for what he does and in my opinion, he's the epitome of a outstanding doctor.
Thanks again for everything, Dr. Heffron....and don't forget about the Junior Mint. :)
Michelle Johnson and family
Dr. Heffron and his team saved my life. A few months ago I was on death's door suffering from acute liver failure which came upon me suddenly. My brain began to swell, I became unconscious and was intubated. My family had flown in from New Jersey (mostly unknown to me!) and the next thing I knew I was waking up in ICU five days later having had a liver transplant! Dr. Heffron's expertise and caring nature is remarkable.....there aren't even enough words to describe how fortunate I was to have been sent to him except maybe to say how fortunate we are to have someone like Dr. Heffron in our world. It has been four months and I'm doing extremely well thanks to Dr. Heffron, Dr. Kulig and the entire Transplant Team. I'm even starting to sing again!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
