Derek K. Hewitt Md's Online Review Report Card

Dr Hewitt & his staff are outstanding. Make you feel so welcome. Great overall experience.

Great! Very thorough and thoughtful! I will continue to have Dr.Hewitt as my ENT.

I was referred to Dr. Hewitt by my PCP as the result of the detection of a swollen lymph node in my neck. After an initial consultation and examination, Dr. Hewitt took a tissue sample and had a biopsy performed. The results indicated that I had squamous cell carcinoma. Dr. Hewitt wanted to confirm the diagnosis and determine how far the cancer had spread so he ordered a PetScan. The PetScan confirmed the diagnosis and confirmed that the spread was limited to the neck and throat Dr. Hewitt has worked with me to determine the best treatment alternatives. He has been very easy to talk with and has been very open to my suggestions. I am very confident with Dr. Hewitt and would recommend him highly.

Dr. Hewitt seemed engaged and helpful the day of surgery but my daughter had many issues just out of surgery. One even needing a breathing treatmemt. We are 10 days post op and she still cry and screams about trying to eat a popsicle. I can't get fluids in her and every call I make to their office they read the same thing over and over and dismiss her without even wanting to see her.... now my 6 year old is on her way to the ER....will never recommend someone who brushes off ongoing issues in a child who isn't even able to get her liquids in.

Dr. Hewitt and his staff are the best. I will recommend him to everybody.

I highly recommend Dr Hewitt if you need surgery. He has impeccable sense of thoroughness and precision -- a very meticulous doctor. I wouldn't want anyone else operating on the inside of my face. Five weeks ago Dr Hewitt performed a septoplasty for a deviated septum which I had from birth. The surgery was performed at the outpatient facility next to YRMC in Prescott. Prior to the surgery he had clearly defined the process and the recovery experience. While he may be concise and brief during the consultations, he would give detailed and clarifying answers to any questions I had. Having met with him for three pre-op appointments and for two appointments following the surgery I have grown to appreciate that we in Prescott have a doctor like him in our community. If you have a deviated septum and have difficulty breathing, consider this procedure. My nose is so much stronger on the inside now. Nostrils are straighten out and I can take really deep breaths through my nose! Was never able to do this before. He really did a nice job and it even looks nice too! Thank you Dr Hewitt.

Dr. Hewitt explained my husband's procedure in layman's terms. After surgery, he came out and said the patient was doing well. Talked about procedure. Loved his bedside manner.

Dr H. Is caring, but his decisions are bad. He harmed me, rather than helped. Apparently you cannot change doctors in the group, once assigned to him. Big problem.

This a smart concerned and caring doctor. Thank goodness we are getting quality care in this town. He takes the time to look after each individual case. We are blessed to have him. Thank you Dr. Hewitt!!!

I highly recommend Dr Hewitt if you need surgery because of his obvious sense of thoroughness and precision -- a very meticulous doctor. I wouldn't want anyone else operating on the inside of my face. Had a deviated septum from birth and met with him about possibility for surgery. Following examinations he stated that septum was definitely deviated and that surgery would allow for me to breathe through my nose. It's wonderful to be able to do so now! Thank you Dr Hewitt!
