In order to provide effective management of these relationships, the University requires annual disclosures from all faculty members with external interests related to their University responsibilities.
As of 09/30/2022, Dr. Hewitt has reported no relationships with companies or entities.
Dr. Hewitt is always very kind and courteous. She is personable, but doesn't spend an inappropriate amount of time chatting either, which I really appreciate.
Dr. Hewitt always makes sure any/ all of my questions are answered. She is very kind and thoughtful.
Excellent. Only improvement would be referral resources for mental health. Provider acknowledged benefit of seeking these services (e.g. Counseling for mental health), but they are incredibly difficult to access. Many providers do not accept new patients, etc. So referring a patient to a particular curated list of providers that accept new patients and the insurances they work with would be beneficial v. The service in general.
Very friendly and easy to talk too
Dr Hewitt is consistently caring, attentive, knowledgable - every positive adjective you could think of. Always answers any and all questions, never makes you feel stupid for asking.
My visit with Dr. Hewitt was a first-time visit because my previous OB/GYN moved out of state so I was anxious for my appointment. She is very thorough and and the visit was a success.
Very through and engaged.
Dr. Hewitt is caring and patient with her patients. She cares about their well-being as well as their gyn concerns/health.
Dr. Hewitt is amazing!
Always a very good experience when visiting Dr. Hewitt. She is a good listener and makes you feel at "ease".
She was wonderful; very friendly and patient. Good listener.
Dr. Hewitt always delivers excellent care and visits to her are always a good experience re: level of health care and overall experience with everyone in her office.
I feel that I often have to remind her my plan of care or what happened at last visit. She often has to refer back to her notes when she sees me.
I have been visiting this provider for more than eighteen years. She has always been extremely helpful and I feel very comfortable addressing any aspect of my health with her. I will be moving out of the area within two years and I will be sorry to lose her as a provider.
Dr. Hewitt was very warm and welcoming. She asked helpful questions, explained the steps/itinerary for the appointment in detail before they happened, and inquired of my personal experiences in a way that made me feel special and supported.
I see this doctor for an annual/yearly visit. She has excellent "bed side" manner and is incredibly knowledgeable. She is very "in the moment" and always attentive.
Dr. Hewitt has been my doctor since 1998! I think she is a wonderful doctor & a great person.
Always good experience with Dr. Hewitt - for past 26 years!
I found out during this visit that I had a miscarriage. Dr. Hewitt was kind in the way she delivered the news. However, I wish she'd taken time to pause the visit and let me get dressed before moving on to next steps. I needed a moment to collect my thoughts and get dressed so I wasn't sitting half naked as she described options for inducing a miscarriage. I started to feel faint and couldn't process any of the questions or info appropriately. This is good trauma-informed practice and I hope she'll implement it with all patients receiving bad news.
Very friendly and knowledgeably.
Dr Hewitt listens carefully, explains things thoroughly. She always makes me feel that what I say is important to her, that we are partners in determining my health care. Not all doctors do that.
She was great
Dr. Hewitt gave me outstanding care. She listened to my concerns and questions. Dr. Hewitt gave me advice and encouragement on how to work on several issues and how to improve my overall health. She gave me plenty of time and was thoughtful and gave me her professional opinion in a truly caring way. Dr. Hewitt is a role model for other doctors and she should be commended for her outstanding service. I am truly thankful to have her for my doctor.
Cannot say enough Dr. Hewitt listened, examined and listened then shared important info for future. Love, love, love her!!

As an intersex person my obgyn provider is very important. Dr. Hewitt diagnosed me in 2002 and although I have seen other obgyn providers in the past, I only plan on seeing Dr. Hewitt in the future (even if that means waiting longer for an appt) because her level of care, compassion, and knowledge is unmet.
My doctor is the greatest for 25 years.
Makes eye contact discusses concerns, reviews medical record with me. Very engaged. Gentle exam.
Doctor is fantastic - even when other health care providers order tests, she is always the first to review results and provide a helpful comment.
