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.

Would never recommend
I went to him for an appointment sit in waiting room for an hour. He comes in and my blood pressure was up he tells nothing he can do. I call for a refill on my prescription because I have narcolepsy the nurse which has always been rude says he won’t refill until I have an EKG done because my blood pressure was up last appointment. I had no problem with the EKG but you are going to wait until I am out of medication then tell me this. They also falsely wrote the did a nuclear stress test on me that they didn’t do. Goodbye and thanks for nothing

Would never refer him
Every appointment my sister has ever had has been a long wait. She had a recent appointment where she waited over 2 1/2 hours to be seen she eventually left without being seen. She asked to speak to a manager to make a complaint was advised one was not available.

Dr Hollins explains each aspect of your determined plan of care, after listening intently to your symptoms and concerns. He treated my spouse over twenty three years. Dr Hollins was my "only" choice when I developed a cardiac concern six years after my husbands passing.

I have seen Dr. Hollins 3 times and was very nervous about seeing a cardiologist. He was patient and even had me laughing at my last visit. I felt supported. He was focused and has an interesting sense of humor that made me feel like he understood my issues of concern.

I have seen him for years He is one of the best and most knowledgeable doctors I have known Since I am a Physician myself I am better positioned evaluate doctors. He is focused on the preventive side of Cardiology which in my experience is relatively rare. His knowledge of lipids is unparalleled. He excels at all aspects of Cardiology. He was born to be a doctor

Service in his Medical Park 8 was horrible. Waited 2 1/2 hours to be seen for 4 minutes. Arrived & signed in @ 10:28a for a 10:45a appt. We were sent to the 2nd floor to check my mother new pacemaker. We were then sent back to the 3rd floor. At 12:20p I went to the front desk to see why it was taking so long to be told he would not able to see us until 1:00p! Office manger was called out and she not very nice and we walk up on her telling someone we were 30 minutes late. Seen by Dr @ 1:10.
