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. Holst is a great doctor. I trust him fully. Last month he performed a knee replacement and I'm healing nicely. I highly recommend him. It's not as bad as I thought it would be. Thank you. ????????

Caring doctor
Dr Holst was extremely pleasant and took time to talk with me, showed my X-rays and explained the various treatment plans for my situation. He made me feel that I and my condition, were extremely important to him. His physician assistant, Ryan, was very reassuring when he came to give me my knee injections. Over all this was a pleasant visit. That really says a great deal from someone who has been known to faint any time a needleIs incorporated in treatment.

Bedside Manner ON POINT!!
The wait time was respectful. The nurse-engaging and attentive. Dr. Holst presents with a bedside manner that still allows for questions to which he provides an answer. I appreciate the way he considered my concerns and allows for collaborative discussion about what needed to happen sooner and possibly later.

He is a very personable doctor.
He listened to my problem and he recommended 2 choices. He was willing to try the less invasive for right now.

Dr Holst is the best
My hip replacement was complicated and Dr Holst took great care of me. I would recommend him for any hip or knee problems.

I am happy to post this review despite the circumstances. There was minimal wait time to be seen, staff took vitals quickly; Dr. Holst worked up course of action, answered questions, listened attentively to my concerns. I would definitely recommend Dr. Holst and staff to anyone who asked.

I understand when it's not possible, but I appreciate that I was seen promptly at my appointment time. Dr. Holst is easy to talk to, very understanding of my multiple problems, and explained possibilities very clearly.

Dr. Holst was very professional and took his time at every visit. He explained my surgery beforehand and what to expect before, during and after. I highly recommend him for a total knee replacement.

Personable and Professional
Dr Holst operated on my broken elbow and put it all back together. He visited my hospital room daily to check on the elbow. He is very personable and friendly and obviously a great surgeon as my elbow is now perfect!!

I was impressed with Dr. Holst. He provides valuable information, to help you make a decision that is best for you and your lifestyle. He treats you as a partner in your care, not condescending or arrogant, helping you make informed treatment decisions. He answers questions and doesn't rush through your appointment.

My life is so much better, thanks to Dr. Holst. I had a total knee replacement in July 2020 and since September, I have progressed to walking up to three miles almost every day and playing kickball with my grandchildren. He was always quick to respond to my most mundane questions via the portal and very thorough in his explanations of everything there and in person. Dr. Holst’s “bed side manner” is amazingly reassuring. Thanks, Dr. Holst.
