Toby Heller, PA-C

Why did you choose to specialize in gastroenterology?

I have always been fascinated with gastroenterology, before I even knew I wanted to work in healthcare. I have a very personal connection to the field and going through Physician Assistant School only strengthened my interest. I am so excited to be a part of a specialty where I can truly make an impact on patients’ health, happiness, and overall well-being.

What are your areas of special interest and expertise within gastroenterology?

Although I am interested in the broad spectrum of gastroenterology, I have a particular interest in Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis.

Do you have any special honors, recognition, or achievements in your medical career that you would like to share?

I received the Clinical Excellence Award granted by the faculty of the College of Health Sciences at Salus University.

What do you and your family enjoy doing during your spare time?

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with friends and family, running and doing Pilates, and discovering new places to eat around NYC!
