Bio
What are some of the specific conditions you treat?
Some of the specific conditions that I treat are sleep apnea, COPD, asthma, insomnia, and post-COVID-19 respiratory symptoms. What techniques or procedures do you use in your practice? Some of the techniques and procedures that I use in my practice are pulmonary function tests, spirometries, and chest x-rays.
What would you like patients to know about your approach to care?
My approach to care includes treating the whole patient to help optimize their state of health. I want to include patients and families in their care.
What inspired you to become a doctor?
I was inspired to become a nurse practitioner when I was a bedside nurse. I was an RN and I loved what I was doing, but I felt like I could provide more for my patients with more autonomy, which inspired me to go back to school to become a nurse practitioner.

NP Hefetz is very caring and concerned about my health and well being. I extremely appreciate the honesty and care shown when I am told by my provider "I'm not sure but let's check". To me, that shows honesty, care and a willingness to put effort in for care. That's trust building.
