Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Holman is terrific. He is professional and knowledgeable and personable. He takes time to answer all your questions and concerns. I'm so appreciative of the 8 or 9 hours he spent on my surgery. It was life changing for me.

Dr. Holman and his Fellow showed great concern over my problem, took time to thoroughly discuss treatment options & recommendations. I really appreciated this. I also appreciated that Dr. Holman was willing to wait to do surgery until my bones were strong enough to witihstand the replacement of several discs. He told me he was doing this to ensure a successful operation.
