J. Timothy Heffernan, MD

«The premier eyelid surgeon in the Pacific Northwest.»
My first visit to the website sent me a subtle pretentious message. But, a website is just a bunch of colors, shapes, lines, and text. I was referred to him by my doctor downtown, so I thought I’d better pay a visit.
I was taken back by Dr. J. Timothy Heffernan himself and no technician. Right away, I felt like I was in good hands. I saw another doctor about my eyelid bumps before who was actually referred to by my regular eye doctor on First Hill. Ironically, my doctor downtown referred me to this doctor — who happens to be connected to the same office as my regular doctor at Eye Associate’s NW… and I feel ALOT more comfortable in this office. My first impression was that he knows his stuff. Told me almost everything i wanted to hear about operating on my eyelids. How long operation takes, recovery instructions, sense of «will get taken care of»… I left satisfied.
The office is really clean and professional. Comfy chairs, view of Capitol Hill, free water bottles, reads, nice finishes, etc. Their tower is connected to Eye Associate’s NW (west) via a long skybridge. I’ve scheduled a surgery for my eyelid bump removals. I shall report back after its recovery. Can’t tell you how excited I am for bump-​free eyelids! Which will hopefully also destroy the mucus-​y drainage I’ve experienced for years… *crosses fingers*
