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.

Excellent Doctor
Dr Holestol is an excellent primary care physician. Both my wife and I have him as our PC physician. Minimal wait times, always takes the time to explain diagnoses and conditions, is attentive and thorough.

Needs time management training.
I’ve wasted two hours waiting for Bjorn during my last two visits and finally chose to leave and switch providers. If you value your time, avoid seeing Bjorn.

Excellent, compassionate doctor
Dr. Holestol is very thorough and caring. He and his office are the most efficient I've experienced. I am more than willing to wait a few minutes because I realize he's giving the same attention to another patient. Baptist Health and Lexington are blessed to have this physician. Thanks so much!

nice guy but lacking
Insisted that patient with COPD and a recent experience with oxygen deficiency keep his mask pulled up during visit. Did not check the patient's pulse oxygen. Lacks common sense. But a very pleasant fellow.

Dr Bjorn Holestol is Friendly, Patient, Efficient, Caring Dr Bjorn Holestol is great! He was very thorough in discovering my history and symptoms and had the best attitude. He was patient and took his time to listened carefully; responding with smart medical acumen as needed. Best bedside manner of any doctor I have known. I did not have to wait but 5 mins before seeing Dr. Holestol. His PA Michelle was delightful and thorough in her pre-prep. I am thrilled to be under his care. In fact, I am so impressed with the entire Baptist Health medical team. Both Dr Holestol and Baptist Health were fast in their follow-up on setting appointments. Their method of reporting visit details is superb; they use the latest in online technology.
