On 13 August 2015, Heffernan signed for Queen of the South on a short-term contract until January 2016.

2014

Heffernan sustained a thigh injury in a goalless draw against St Mirren, where he played six minutes under newly manager Terry Butcher and would be out for three-four weeks. He made his return on 3 January 2014, in the Edinburgh derby, where he came on as a substitution as Hibernian won, 2–1.

In the first half of the season, Heffernan continued to be used in the first team, though playing less in the first team and being an unused substitute. Heffernan then scored his first goal of the season, in a 4–0 win over Livingston on 18 October 2014. Having not played since Raith Rovers on 20 December 2014, it was announced that Heffernan would be leaving the club, even if his contract comes to an end in the summer.

2013

He made his debut, in the opening game of the season, in a 0–0 draw against his former club, and scored in the next game against MK Dons. Heffernan was involved in the squad in the League Cup that reached the quarter-finals, starting off beating Manchester City in a penalty shoot-out after a being 1–1 after extra-time. He converted the last penalty. He also scored against Aston Villa in a 3–0 win, before Rovers were finally beaten in a penalty shoot-out against Arsenal. Later in the season, Heffernan was not included from the first team. He scored seven times in 26 appearances.

I was suspended for the final at Wembley because I got sent off in the semi-final first leg, so that wasn't great. It was a bad day for me and it also involved Celtic's Charlie Mulgrew, who was playing for Southend at the time, on loan from Wolves. I was provoked. It was at the end of the game and it wasn't really a headbutt. He was in my face and I just had a little nod of the head. The referee was looking straight at the incident and had no option but to show red. To be fair, he had to send me off, it was a rush of blood to the head. Obviously it was disappointing to miss the play-off final because you don't get many chances to play at Wembley, however good your career. We beat Leeds 1–0, in front of a full house, so it was a great day for the club. It was just disappointing I had to watch from the sidelines.

In the 2012–13 season, Heffernan missed out the first nine matches due to a collarbone injury. After two months out, Heffernan played his first game of the season in a 2–1 loss against St Johnstone. Following his five-goal to his tally this season, he scored his first hat-trick in over a year, as Kilmarnock beat Hearts 3–0 on 16 February 2013.

However, Heffernan later had his playing time and scoring form had slightly gone limited, having spent time as an un-used substitute.

While warming up ahead of a match against Aberdeen, Heffernan sustained a groin injury, which ruled him out for the remainder of the season. Unexpectedly, Heffernan made his return in the last game of the season against his former club, Kilmarnock, which they lost and condemned the club in the play-offs. In the play-offs against second place Hamilton Academical, Heffernan set up a goal for Jason Cummings, who scored twice in the match, as Hibernian won, 2–0, in the first leg, which meant Hibernian might retain their Scottish Premiership status. However, Hamilton catch up the same scoreline in the second leg and the draw resulted in extra time and still on until it went to penalty shoot-out. However, Hibernian lost and were relegated to the Scottish Championship.

His good form continued as he went on to score a hat-trick in the Scottish League Cup third round match against Queen of the South in a 5–0 win. Heffernan says scoring a hat-trick overcame his mistakes in the previous match.

2009

2007

In 2007–08 season, Heffernan started by making nine appearances and scoring once. His playing time was reduced before not included in the starting 11 in late-October. By December, he sustained ligament damage to his ankle, which kept him out of action for five weeks. Later in the season, Heffernan sparked a moment of controversy in the 2008 League One Play-off semi-final playing against Southend United, when he headbutted an opponent due to frustration in the final minute of the match. Heffernan was subsequently sent-off and was unable to play in the second leg, or the final against Leeds United at Wembley Stadium. After a 3–2 win, he finished his season, with 30 appearance and eight goals in all competitions. Heffernan reflected on his incident, quoting:

2006

In 2006–07 season, under new manager Sean O'Driscoll, Heffernan made a return in the first team and was awarded League One Player of the Month for December after netting four times from five league games during the month. Heffernan played a vital role when he scored twice in each leg of the Football League Trophy semi-final against Crewe Alexandra, goals which ultimately sent Rovers to the final of that competition. Seven days later, Heffernan signed a new deal with the club, that would keep him there till 2010. Shortly after that, Heffernan damaged his ankle against Port Vale and was out for a month. He made his return just in time for the Football Trophy final and scored the second goal at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff against Bristol Rovers, which Doncaster won 3–2. Soon afterwards, Heffernan, once again, damaged his ankle, against Millwall, which meant him missing the rest of the season, though he still made 43 appearances and scoring 21 goals, making him the club's top-scorer for the season.

2005

He joined Doncaster Rovers in the summer of 2005 for £125,000, which was then a new record transfer fee paid by the club. The Irishman weighed in with some key goals throughout his Doncaster Rovers career.

Heffernan made his debut, on the opening game of the season, in a 1–1 draw against Torquay United on 7 August 2004 and then scoring his first goal against Stockport County in his fifth appearance for the club. Four months into joining the club, his form went sour that Notts County attempted to sign him on loan. But the next day, Heffernan scored in a FA Cup match against Brentford, but lost in a penalty-shootout after a tie 1–1 in the regular time and kept after extra-time. However, during the season due to the form of Steve Brooker and Leroy Lita, his chances in the first team were limited and also injury as well.

At the end of the 2004–05 season, Heffernan says he desire to leave Bristol City. Oldham Athletic had their bid to sign Hefferman accepted, which was followed up by Doncaster Rovers.
