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.

When I found out I needed cataract surgery, Dr. Holweger was recommended to me. His excellent surgical skills have produced remarkable results for me. I am grateful first of all to God, then to Dr. Holweger and his office staff. I would also like to send a big shout out to the Northwest Kansas Surgery Center. I have been totally impressed every time I have been a patient there. Their professionalism, efficiency, patient care and follow-up have been part of my every surgery.

My experience with him was fantastic. He was very professional and curteous. The hospital was super clean. The staff and nurses were very curteous and professional. I went from very cloudy vision to almost perfect vision with no glasses.

When you finally get to see him, Dr. Holweger is a friendly and courteous doctor who explains well what is wrong with you, but the wait times to get to see him are absurd. On my latest visit, it took well over an hour and a half for the doctor to see me. What is perhaps the most infuriating part of the experience is the way that the nurses breeze you through the routine parts only to lead you to a second waiting room they have set up elsewhere in the building.

I had right eye cataract surgery and was completely pleased with everything! A few weeks later, I had the right eye done and it was a totally different experience! Apparently the assisting nurse was in training and every time the dr asked for irrigation, she bumped the table and he 'yelled' (yes, yelled!) at ME to stop moving! After the third time I was crying and told him I wasn't moving! By this time I was terrified that 'SHE' was going to cause him to hurt my eye!!! More to say, no space!
