Dr. David Jay Hecker, MD

Horrible experience. I think they use diluted fillers. Definitely overcharge, after they quote a price. Please go somewhere else

I saw Dr Hecker this afternoon. I found him to be a wonderful dermatologist. He listened and diagnosed my problem very quickly. I left feeling very confident that the medication he sold me would take care of my problem fairly rapidly. I recommend Dr Hecker very highly JR

What a wonderful, kind doctor. Had a cyst removed, so gentle and painless. Nice office staff, prompt and professional.

Such a kind, gentle doctor. He removed a large cyst painlessly. He’s an excellent Physician, does a great job. Would definitely refer him to family and friends.

They have strange policies. They want any balances the insurance company does not pay to be paid by you within 45 days and want your credit card upfront. I was a licensed insurance agent in FL and CA. The Provider (DOC) performs a procedure. They bill the insurance company. The Insurance Company (Carrier) has a rate they pay for a certain procedure but if there is a balance, as there often is, usually the Doc will write it off. Not this Doc. They want you to pay the difference and you will NEVER know what the agreed upon rate is (between the Doc and the Carrier), but you will get a bill from the Doc. You do not want to have to pay the difference. I tried explaining this to the staff but they really do not know - they just want a credit card upfront. I have found after all my surgeries that anyone that wants this payment info upfront, is usually worried about payment on the backend due to dissatisfied patients. Do no harm right! Watch out for this office. There are plenty of dermatologist that will treat you without worrying about a bill. They will tell you they don't even know what the final bill will be except you will be on the hook for it. OUCH!!!

Called on Monday to receive more info about the prescribe medication. Had 2 diffent creams for hands and feet. However, instruction did not specify which was for hand or feet. Called AGAIN Wednesday and ask for further instructions. They took the message and said they will call back. Today is Friday and they still have not called back. I think a week is extremely poor support. I’m not sure if they know what they prescribe.

I went to Dr. David Hecker to have a very thin mole on the center of my forehead removed. He removed it so quickly, without even making the slightest effort to do a clean job and cut it at the surface so there's very little scar. I now have a hole right smack in the middle of my forehead, I've had bigger and thicker moles removed in the past with other doctor's, and they did a much better job where I not only didn't have a hole after, but hardly any scar. My parents have had doctors remove skin cancer moles that were thicker then this without a hole or scar. Mole removal is the ABC's of Dermatology. He's either incompetent, or just doesn't care, or both. I read one of his bad reviews, where a patient said she felt he treated her poorly because she had free insurance, I got the same impression. I don't believe that those 5 star reviews are real. I would definitely not recommend him.

My office experience was great. Going to see him again and I have referred him out several times

Dr David Hecker has seen me for about 3 minutes. Prescribed a medication without detailed instructions.

Dr. Hecker listened to my concerns about my skin conditions and provided a caring, professional opinion. I elected to have 2 procedures and I am so happy with the results. Thank you, Dr. Hecker!

The office staff was very unprofessional and rude. I will not return to this office again and would never recommend. Dr. Hecker should know that his staff interfaces with his patients first and sets the tone for the appointment.

I went to 3 dermatologists for my skin problem before seeing Drs Hecker. They really helped me. I like the staff, they are very patient. I'm happy to have FINALLY found a great skin doctor.

I'd give 10 stars if I could. A great doctor with a great staff. I was there twice this week. Any anxiety squashed immediatel and the doctor would take the time to tie your shoes if you wanted him to. Personally and professionally A-plus!

Free standing building, easy to find, great location. Short wait time, great staff, with good bedside manner. Overall great experience, would recommend to friends and family

Dr. Hecker is the kindest, gentlest, smartest dermatologist in South Florida! He cured my skin condition after suffering with it for many years and seeing numerous other dermatologists in the area who couldn't help me. His office is clean, and the wait couldn't be better for a doctor's office. The staff is nice, attentive, and they are very diligent about calling patients back with their biopsy results. Dr. Hecker is the guy for you if you have a difficult problem, especially if you want a doctor with a super bedside manner.

Better than a lot of them out there!

The staff was very unprofessional. The nurse taking my information inside the examination room slumped over the counter for support, wiped her runny nose on her sleeve instead of a kleenex and forgot to ask for all the information. The doctor did not have a microscope in the office to look at my fungus and took nail clippings to send to the lab at the cost of $800. He perscribed antibiotics that were over $300 which my GP advised me not to take. The office did not return my pharmacist call when he had a question about the perscription. I did not feel confident in the doctor's diagnosis. The billing area had schredded paper in the floor corner and was very unkempt and unprofessional. The total experience was scarry and a total waste of my time and money. I DO NOT going to either Dr. Hecker.

saved my life by diagnosing a melanoma when 2 other dermatologists said it was nothing
